It's a 0551UPMW. I had o/ced it to 2520mhz@1.36V(actual) dual prime stable.
Last night, I pumped it upto 2538mhz(282x9)@1.36V, and dual prime immediately failed on core 0, but core 1 was still running strong. Then I tried 2547mhz(283x9)@1.40V, and this is where the odd thing happened. Instead of the core 0, core 1 failed prime within 2 minutes! The temperature during dual prime runs was never over 53C.:confused:
Any thoughts?

53C is pretty serious heat boss. What kind of cooling do you have?

If you're at 53C with only 1.4v, you need better cooling in your case.
