    Socket 1155 also has socket burnout issues!

    Looks like the same issue which happened with early socket 1156 motherboards has cropped up again:

    It will be interesting to see if this issue is widespread or not.

    I suspect it will only affect people who think that putting over 1.4V into their new socket 1155 chips is a good idea!

    Could it be the curse of the crap computer brand-name, the ghost of Vista returning perhaps.

    It'll all depend on how far people push them and how easy it is to push this new system too far.

    is socket 1155 physically different to 1156?
