Kyle who runs [H]ard OCP had this to say today in a forum:

"Hopefully will have an i7 milled to Intel spec so I can put thermistor in between it and the HSF in the next week or two."

I've wanted to see this sort of testing for a long time now.

I think Kyle can't believe how hot Core i7 is reporting its temps so he wants to see some numbers.

I was hoping for a test like this on a Core 2 Duo but the Core i7 sensors are far from perfect so this should give us some new info about how these sensors perform.
