Numbers from multimeter completely exonerate the power supply. Not
only were numbers 'good'. Power supply numbers were well within
'good'.

Some CPUs have a date code or stepping number. Slight differences
in same CPU made at different times or in different fabs.

Now we have to wait for the thrilling 'season ending' conclusion -
motherboard or CPU. And nobody gets to vote.
