I will test see if I experience similar when I get mine for review...

should be here in a day or few..

Can you lemme know what components your running so I can try and match it.
Better not be CPU. This one's nice.

SS -37 to -40 load at evap head. 2 high CFM 120X38 fans on RAM and PWM's. Smaller fan on "Southbridge" - it gets warm with higher baseclock. Velociraptor 150, Ripjaws 2X2gb 6-8-6-24/1600's @ 7-10-8-24/2260 1.74v (need 1.73v minimum to boot at c7 with 2133 divider), LG DVD player, GTX 280.

I have a lot of extra chips here and an unopened UD4 to help troubleshoot.

Fearing condensation issues, stripped the rig down and the board went into the oven for 5min @ 80 Deg. After letting it cool down for a little while put the pot back on and everything was back to "normal" for the rest of the session.

My Rampage III Extreme after about 4 hours at -100 or more would act the same. My best guess is that some of the components get a to cold when the art eraser freezes through.
If that's the case, it'll be bittersweet. Was only at SS temps: -40ish at the evap head. This CPU was still scaling linearly with small voltage bumps at 5.82 ghz. I stopped at 1.645v while at SS temps and had fantasies of 5.9 when giving 1.7v at 10-20 degrees colder temps.
