Milo,

<You haven't provided any ideas, except the L2 doesn't touch the MB, which is incorrect. >

Thunderbird L2 is inside the chip. It may have some diagnostic hooks to the package but for all practical purposes it does not touch the MB.

L2 is unlikely to be a factor here. Problems with noise from higher speed CPU or power/decoupling issues are more likely to be problems than anything else. Don't mean to say that is what is at play here but given the failure is at higher MHz, it does sound like a good possibility.

Board or BIOS or power supply upgrades typically solve these problems.
