the whole point of using a simulator is to get as accurate C/W and flow vaules for a block. it's the job of the user to then match his rig's equipment and CPU to the results of the testing

I think you guys are missing something. If the masses move to an IHS on the core, and the testing is still using a die sim for cores... how is this beneficial and directly related to the customers equipment?
It seems that if you place an IHS over the core replicating what the users have, wouldn't that give you more transferable / realistic results??? People mentioned 2 TIM joints... well... isn't that exactly what every user with the new IHS is using?? If you guys are more worried about mounting variables rather than simulating the chip then something's wrong. Back up.. attempt to replicate the chip.. then attempt to find a way to remove the variables. If someone is making a die sim without considering the IHS, they are attempting to only test yesterdays scenarios.
just a thought.
