I can watch movies like Natural Born Killers unedited, but I just can't look at those pics for more than a second :(

Mike, it was a heat related death. They had the pictures posted over at AMD zone. I guess it's getting replaced for free..

That thing must have run for a long time without a heatsink to beable to melt the solder.

Cause of death? I know heat related... but something that looks that bad seems to lean closer to the "Oh sh*t! I didn't mean to run it without a heasink!" Categorie :)

overheat?? now i don't know a lot about overclocking, but overclocking to the point of cracking the thing?!! honestly i think not.

it looks like there's a giant voltage surge and sparks fly or something. or the person just snaps and throws the thing into the oven
