Default "TLB parity error in virtual array; TLB error 'instruction"?

Hello.

Lately, I have been random and rare kernel panics on my old Debian/Linux
box (tried both Kernel versions 2.6.30 and 2.6.32). I couldn't figure
out what it was until I discovered mcelog a couple days ago, and it
revealed interesting scary datas in my dmesg/messages and syslog:

# cat /var/log/messages
....

I am not familiar with hardwares, so I assume this is very bad, but what
part(s) is/are bad? Is my old Athlon 64 X2 CPU dying/damaged? I have had
it and its motherboard since 12/24/2006, so it is not that old yet. I
have the full details on my secondary machine at
http://alpha.zimage.com/~ant/antfarm.../computers.txt ...

Although, this might be related to the PSU's death back in early
December 2009. My friend and I believe it also took out my EVGA GeForce
8800 GT video card and damage a 512 MB of RAM (tested 3 GB with and each
piece with memtest86+ v4.00 to narrow it down).
http://alpha.zimage.com/~ant/antfarm/about/toys.html has a log of the
details of my systems. I did run memtest86+ again a couple weeks ago and
this morning for 5-6 hours, but not got no errors after five full tests
(passed). I also do not overclock/OC.

Thank you in advance.
