i don't think it's 100... if you set the tjmax to 100, the actual core temps are lower then the overall cpu temp which cindy pointed out is the contact on the actual ihs... i think it should be 105 or 110... it makes sense because with those settings the individual core temps are slightly higher than that of the IHS...

just my 2 cents... i would love to hear your opinion on this theory webb..

::EDIT::

also, after an hour or so of running prime95 with the tjmax at 100, the cores and the cpu temp even out across the board... at least from my experience...
