Is that the "typical" power consumption or the "maximum" power consumption?
What is the spec'd difference between "typical" and "maximum" power consumption?

Document page 22. PDF page 34.
Max is 67.9, typical is 61.7, giving a difference of 6.2W

Where does your particular processor fall on the (probably) Guassian curve for power consumption of these CPU's?

Who knows? Who cares?

What constitutes maximum load? (Hint: Folding is not it.)

Win2K tells me my processors are at 100% so that's what I go by. If you'd rather, take the typical and add 7 watts from my submersed pump.

How much heat is traveling down the CPU pins to the motherboard?
|
About the same as everyone else's processors.
An un-sinked AMD burns up in 3 seconds. All secondary heat routes are, therefore, insignificant.

Trust me, I'd like to believe that a block this simple is as good as White Water. You certainly haven't provided evidence for it though.

I never said that it was. Everyone knows that the C/W ratings calculated by Bill A are not comparable to motherboard testing. That's comparing apples to oranges.
