I think the severe stability issues with my 8RDA+ might have something to do with chipset cooling, after much debate. The heatsink will burn you upon touching it (I have a blister to prove it).

If any of you have chipset fan recommendations, please make them here:

For the rest of you considering one of these boards, be ready to do some heavy aircooling on the nb, or even watercooling, or you will have problems even running stock speeds. That the manufacturers would put these pussy hs/hsf 's on them is criminal.
