After Unclewebb and Coolest complained about the impossible temps using 65nm tjmaxes from the initial IDF in Taiwan, intel corrected the tjmax values, the attached slide is the corrected presentation slide from intels idf site, recently released. It was privately communicated to coolest though while back.
Also came a response that all 65nm DTS sensors have been calibrated 5+C higher than listed tjmax to prevent throttling below tcasemax, and given the ones tested in E6xxx G0 series and Q6600 G0's are clearly 8-10C higher (and intel confirmed that 8-10C higher is certainly possible in calibration)... setting tjmax 100 for those would be in accordance with testing and with intels newest information.
