We just had a mishap with some motherboards running a socket LGA 1156.When they are being outfitted with unique socket Foxconn, the CPU is not completely in contact with. The result is a serious problem if high overclocking. According to our investigations confers bad contacts between CPU sockets and prevent him from receiving a portion of the energy its, causing serious damage to both components. Overall, the Foxconn socket is rather fragile, Thomas (Pt1t) also having a bad experience.

A producer of motherboards has also confirmed it had identified issues with Foxconn sockets. This trouble appears confined to the moment in case of tremendous overclocking, and we therefore strongly advise you not to go above the 4 GHz with a voltage too high if you overclock a configuration P55.We pursue closely the consequences of this situation. The P55 platform builds up definitely harms after the story of power too light, as well as the worries of PCI Express...
