    It actually seems now that the southbridge connection to teh NB heatsink dictates temps...but also because I am using thermal probes attached to various places I am aware that both SB and NB temps are not reported accurately in ANY instance....both heatsinks are 2c higher by thermal probe than reported temps by on-board sensors.

    the heatsink assembly , after changeing paste, seem quite good...it's the stock TIM that fouls things up!
    I left the MB in the frig for about 3 hours and tried again. Just as you said, the NB and SB HS popped right off with no real force.
