Yeah, but everybody's got a theory, even Arctic Silver. I started this thread to get everyone's opinion, and to make it perfectly clear that the mirror finish is best.

Still, it seems to me that the surface of the core is now the issue. I don't want to get into the Durons, but the current Athlon XPs, especially the latest one with the Thoroughbred core, seem to be very flat, even shiny. I guess someone is doing something right, I'm just wondering why it took so long.
