this thing has heat written all over itYes, try to see if it's a heat issue. Get something like healthd to monitor temp and the distributed.net client or Prime95, whatever can get that processor hot and see if it freezes up again..

Just a hunch - monitor your CPU temp. I had something similar. I took my
case off, ensured if have proper venting - and the freeze ups stopped.
yes, do
taking the cover off will not necessarily help this. is the cpu heat sink properly seated? if needed does it have heat sink compound?
also tail you log files xtail /var/log/* or something like that maybe some clues there.
if all fails start pulling hardware out remove everything not really needed 512mb video keyboard. see if that helps if it does start adding stufff til it breaks
also start the box crank the cpu, see it that speeds it up
that's all i can think off for now

Also, if you have something like a Knoppix boot CD available, try it and run the same things you do and see if the same happens.
Considering it's a new processor, the BIOS should be set to either reboot or just boost the fans if the processor begins to overheat and I think it might even lower the power going to it to lower the temp. Try to get it to freeze again and reboot right away and check the temps in the BIOS.
