Except we've never seen any other power consumption measurements for Phenom II so far. Given hwbox's results, it's far more likely that Phenom II temp sensors are inaccurate, or at best not directly comparable to Intel sensors readings.
coolaler said that they were stable, im not sure about the other 4.5ghz ones but i doubt any tests were run. and considering that phenom II's temp sensors are the same as phenom I's i doubt they would be inaccurate. now the am3 ones are a different type of sensor so they might be.
