to which portion of the site's (potential ?) readership is the testing addressed ?
(since obviously the 'as bought' camp is distinct from the pop-a-top group)
"I would love to see what the reality is for one of those blocks"
on a CPU no less ?
for a wb that 'lost' the die sim tests ?

you really do want to make an initil internal TIM joint characterization that will be directly comparable with subsequent CPU testing results (IS there the initial variability, to what extent ?)
- if you test with an IHS over time you will be able to monitor the internal TIM joint in the same way
note that a dT will not yield the same info (unless only one variable is assumed)
