Somehow I highly doubt that. Maybe, maybe when using phase change the differences would be minimal but from my experience with the P4, removing the IHS improved temps 5C. With straight water cooling that is a huge gain. I don't see how the same would not apply to the A64 unless they are using a synthetic diamond IHS.
