Wait a minute now Bill. I see what you're saying BUT please be consistent. The quote of the blocks performing similarly was based upon: (a) a TC probe on the outside edge of the IHS (b) the motherboard's onboard diode reading system

All the sudden is that good enough? Or only when it is convenient? Both of those measurements are pretty strongly subject to temp compression and we both know that's why the numbers are all so close for that kind of testing.
