Rock stable, does a buildworld in 45 minutes!. Sat next to me is an A7v with cheap PC133 ram, a Quantum drive on the UDMA100 channel that also is rock stable. Both the 1004 BIOS, set to optimal, and running 4-STABLE. Only time I had problems was when I left the squidgy pink thermal paste on the heatsink that made it overheat. Cleaning it off resulted in a stable system. Oh and as to load, it ran 10 consecutive buildworlds with -j4 as a test with no problems.
