I don't know about a P4 system. Wouldn't think it would be any different as the sockets are designed similar I think. The P4 socket is smaller though.

Anyway earlier today I did the mod on my Abit KD7. Instead of poping the top off I just dremeled it. I had it all setup already with oneof the meatal cutters. Took about a minute to make a nice little channel. The KD7 onboard is reading 3C cooler then the thermocoupler. AND I figured out what happened above. The battery in my multimeter was just about dead giving false readings. Changing the batter brought it back to normal.
