As I read this thread and the discussion its turned into, I can't help but think....
If the IHS temp is 'important', why isn't there a IHS temp sensor on every motherboard?
As an average user and overclocker, I never know what the IHS temp really is, at ANY time. I could really care less about the IHS temp.
What I do get to see is die temp, a reference number at best. But the only CPU temp as a user I get to see.
If you give temps for the IHS for reference, you might as well sell me a car and tell me how fast it goes down hill. A Ford Focus can do 0-60 in 5.0 flat going down hill at the right grade.
Waterblocks are for cooling CPU's right?
