This is possibly a bit left field - but I experienced something like 
this once, and it was due to overheating - the edges of the (large) cpu 
heatsink hung over the circuitry concerned, preventing enough airflow 
and obviously offloading heat! So maybe check for something hot nearby 
to where the realtek stuff is.

Cheers
