    now according to RLM that way (which is not logical) is better, but we have to see more testing to see which way is better
    I know it's not logical, I was surprised as well.

    I wonder about 2 things.

    1. Due to the size of the mounting plate, the top heatsink was pushed off the surface by a few degrees (is that mosfets along the top as well on the P5K?), so I wonder if this had any bearing at all on the temps I found.

    2. On a horizontal mount the grooves run in parallel with the cores. the nozzle/jet plate however runs with lines across the cores. I don't understand the physics involved, but might this have any bearing?
