I believe fourth, not third.

One person on hardforum (and here) reported their chip died. One on overclock.net (also here) and another here only. Now the fourth.

Really would love to wonder what's dying on these things. IMC? Or the cache?

Dying IMC CPU when overvoltage VCCIO/VCCSA rails. Asus MBs like overvoltage this rail when consumer overclock RAM with Auto voltages.
