    I mean at the same voltage & speed as the TG, they feel much hotter. I wasn't giving them more voltage. If I was giving them more voltage than the TG, sure I would expect them to be hotter, but I wasn't.

    The TG get warm running 2.2 - 2.3v, but no where near as hot as the cellshocks, and the cellshocks wer only running on 2.04v.

    I think the cellshock must have excellent thermal contact between the IC's and the heatspreader. There's really nothing else it can be. Almost makes me want to pull the heatspreader off my TG and try to reseat them using some non conductive thermal compound instead of that thermal tape they use, and if they wont stay on due to clearance or lack of adhesive, I may run them naked. Not sure what to do yet.

    Perhaps just removing them and running them naked would be better, as if I had to rma, i could just put them back together and send them away (assuming I could even get an RMA authority from them in the first place).
