If you ever saw an ihs out of a proc, you know that at that point is thicker than the center and the a64 ihs is is overall thicker than the ihs in p4, you can not take any real proc temp from the ihs.
How your delta pressures betwin idle and load?

Hehe... That I know even too well. That's why I was not trying to say that -24C LOAD is CPU temp, but CPU IHS temp. And still, not the best measurement there is as It's impossible to get it attached closer to the middle of the IHS, where actual core is. If you have better idea how to get as close as possible to real CPU die temp measurement, then let me know Without removing a heatspreader, that is
I still believe that even after the IHS is removed, temps would be much lower than what MBM or Speedfan are showing. I just can't imagine that there would be -24C on IHS and +5C on a DIE. It just looks way to much of a difference.

What exactly you're asking me about?

I just figured what you asked me about... Well, I can't measure that. I'm just a OCer, unfortunately I have no skills/tools/gases/instruments to built my own phase change. So I'm not able to answer that question for ya

EDIT: Can you run EXACTLY same test, with same method at your MAX Prime95 SmallFFT stable config?

EDIT: I'm leaving in few minutes, so I can answer to any other questions later today...

Actually... that isn't out of the realm of reality... with your Vcore and Mhz used I figure something on the order of a 0.21 C/W thermal impedance... considering that your measurement is on the corner of the IHS and not at the center, it is actually lower. That said, those IHSs and the paste between them and the die stink

What surprises me to a degree [ pun intended ] is the difference from the embedded probe ("evap") to the side of the block... I might suggest that you do two things... get yourself some copper tape to mount the probes with and put some very good paste on your probe to help get better contact.

I guess I need to take a closer look at Chilly1's blocks...

Peace

Ok, this is gonna be the last one, I promise I just thought that since I'm on it I will show you some more testing I've done tonight

I wanted to see, what difference is between temps shown in BIOS / Hardware Monitor in comparison to temps I got from all 3 probes. Sitting in BIOS gives CPU a little bit of excercise. Then I run same LOAD test in Windows, as I did last time: PRime95 SmallFFT.

1.This is what BIOS shows for temps.

2. Then we see temps from probes: TEMP1=CPU IHS TEMP and TEMP2 is BLOCK TEMP

3. The I switched probes to show evap temp: TEMP1=EVAP IHS TEMP and TEMP2 is BLOCK TEMP

4. This is sitting IDLE in Windows: TEMP1=EVAP IHS TEMP and TEMP2 is BLOCK TEMP

5. Again, with probes switched: TEMP1=CPU IHS TEMP and TEMP2 is BLOCK TEMP
