I dunno about that totally. With my diode reader and 1600+ I get the same C/W every time I test the dynatron BH-635. There are of course slight variations in cpu load, but they are totally masked by the 1C resolution of the reader and the ambient temperature probe on my A7V-133.

Here is a useful aspect of C/W:

See how the C/W values change with heat load applied? That is because there is something awry with his reader (probably the leads are too long). If the results were only reported as delta T, then I wouldn't be able to pick up on that nearly as easily.
