I believe it is set to 1 temp, trying to figure out the "crash temp" of every intel cpu is impossible. 135C is a number that has been floated around here that sounds reasonable, I don't think anyone thinks it is factual. We do know that Thermtrip# is set to appx Tc=90C 3.0 gig and higher cpu's, Table 4-3 and Table 5-2. If 135 C is a reasonable , is 175C reasonable to shut down the cpu?

It is impossible because every single cpu is set differently.

Tc is not related to PROCHOT# or THERMTRIP#. It is the design specs oems use to design their thermal solutions to be in spec to case temp when operating within thermal design power (TDP).

So we get shutdown when the case temp is near 90C. How does that relate to the thermal sensor and what it actually reads near the ALU? It tells us nothing.
Some processors will handle more voltage and higher clock rates before reaching a case temp of 90 under the same heatsink.
