RE the IHS with AMD vs. Intel; Intel used to have poor IHS to core mating, back in the Northwood days. I experienced a 2.6 which after removing the IHS I lost 9C, with 3 other Northy's that I popped the lid I lost about 3C. Intel today has a MUCH better way of bonding the IHS to the core and it is virtually impossible to remove the IHS from an Intel CPU today. I fear from what I am hearing that AMD has garbage IHS to core bond, until they fix this issue it would be best to pop the lid, this I am sure of.
