Hi there. I'm a proud new owner of a 3570k. Here's the problem.
I use this rig for Folding@Home. Problem is that after a while the rig freezes. I can't alt control delete out. Hard Reset. Well.
3570k
P8Z77-V Pro
Corsair GS600
Hyper X 1600mhz 8GB
Vertex 4
That's my current setup. Before I had a old HDD and P8Z77-V. Ok. I ran tests on the RAM per module and nothing. Kept freezing. I put in a different pair and it did the same thing. Ruled that out. I thought it was the MOBO. P8Z77-V. I swapped that out and it did it with my new board. Froze. So, someone told me the HDD. Old. I swapped that out. Vertex 4. New SSD and it froze once. Currently it's Folding and no issues after that one lock up.
So...I'm running Linux Mint. I changed it from Ubuntu thinking it was Ubuntu. Nope, it did it with Mint so I also ruled that out. Last two things to check? PSU and 3570k. The PSU was on a AMD rig that was folding 24/7 with a HD 6850 folding on it also. Could it be that the 3570k is bad?
