No, no real value. Especially boards that read with insocket thermistors, those are the worst and are good for nothing. Boards that read ondie, are OK at determining relative differences between blocks, but in no way are 2 systems able to compare temps to any accurate degree. Citing temps is like pissing upwind, trying to compare temps with others is like pissing up a rope, you get the idea.
