In terms of the fuzion's true performance, well that won't be determined based on the testings smee has been conducted as that would require time for the thermal paste to burn in as well as other variables.
My thoughts. to your efforts though smee. Good to see that there appears to be a fair amount of difference thus far.
Yes I agree entirely with nikhsub1's post too. But I just don't have the time to do things like that

And yea, the thermal paste didn't have to much time for curing, but MX-2 doesn't need much time anyway. But regardless, I do agree that it would have been better to let it cure, as I only had the same mount for about 10-20 minutes at a time.
I spread the TIM very thin across the top of the CPU making sure it was flat, without any little dips, and such before I put the block on, and when I did put the block on I made sure that I wouldn't catch any air bubbles underneath it by laying it on at an angle.

Thanks for all the encouraging words guys!!
I'll continue the testing tomorrow.
