Nvidia’s Admits their Latest Core-Logic Causes Data Corruption During Overclocking
Nvidia Corp., a leading designer of graphics processors and chipsets, recently admitted that its most-recent chipset for Intel Corp.’s microprocessors may cause data corruption in case processor bus and system memory are overclocked. Earlier customers blamed previous-generation Nvidia’s core-logic sets for data corruption under the same circumstances.
Apparently, when computer enthusiasts overclock processor system bus (PSB) and memory clock-speeds on systems that are based on Nvidia nForce 790i-series core-logic, they may experience data corruption on hard disk drives. Earlier end-users complained about the same issue on systems powered by previous-generations Nvidia nForce chipsets. ____________ Source: X-bit labs

Its big and bad when it happens at stock settings like with the 680i... in this case it seems to be when overclocking that problems occur which in a way isn't as bad. Will be interesting to see what they find, how easy it is to recreate etc. (We didn't see any probs with our 790i boards)
