Subject: AMD A10: MCE Instruction Cache Error

Hello,

I've just got the following on an AMD A10 5800K:

------
[ 8395.999581] [Hardware Error]: CPU:0 
MC1_STATUS[-|CE|MiscV|-|AddrV|-|-]: 0x8c00002000010151
[ 8395.999586] [Hardware Error]:        MC1_ADDR: 0x0000ffffa00e1203
[ 8395.999588] [Hardware Error]: Instruction Cache Error: Parity error 
during data load from IC.
[ 8395.999590] [Hardware Error]: cache level: L1, tx: INSN, mem-tx: IRD
------

Kernel is 3.6.5, MB is an Asus F2A85-M with BIOS 5103 (the latest).

Can someone enlight me about what might be wrong with my (new) system 
(memtest didn't show an errors)?

What IC is meant? As far as I know, this processor doesn't support ECC, 
so I wonder where that parity error does come from.

Regards,

Alexander
