Was just reading about this myself. Seems like the problem is on the chip, and affects all P67 and H67 motherboards, so there'll probably be a motherboard recall soon.
Lol...its interesting how Intel stocks have dropped today:

whoops! I see there is another thread already about this, but I missed it due to the title! ah well.
Not too sure on the recall, they seem to indicate that not all boards in the wild have the issue...will ahve to wait and see!

The price folks pay for having the latest and greatest all the time. I remember seing an article about burnt sockets last week but since it was not here at TPU I did not trust it. Hope they do not screw any of the folks over about not wanting to warranty (MB manuf. blame the Intel, Intel blames MB makers) - it could get real messy!

Ugh. I'm hoping that vendors will do some kind of seamless exchange for affected boards. Looks like I need to call Newegg.

This sucks no matter who builds the chipset.
I hope not too many people are hurt or inconvenienced by this
