Isn't this reliably reproducible?  Assuming yes, Intel are such swell
guys that you might ask them to ship a few dozen cards to you to break
until you've tracked down the problem.  I mean, it's a lot easier to
find this sorts of fault when you can see it first hand than trying to
guess from third parties' reports, isn't it?  For some reasonable value
of "you", that so.
