As long as it's the same for each block you mount it should'nt affect it. Nice temps on the AMD block BTW

...
The temp differential does get bigger as more heat is introduced, so you would expect to see less of a 'gap' between a P4 and a hotter AMD. AFAIK that is

...
I'd like to see the difference (C/W) in them in a BillA style test, I think you'd see a bigger gap when it's not 'system restricted' so to speak...
Have you got any pics up of your latest block finished lee?..
