Well, so, it seems fairly certain that Intel has chosen to double the number of layers of TIM in your IB setup, which has a whole lot to do with why IB runs so dang hot, it would seem. Or so they seem to think over here. I think they're probably right.

And well, since they even suggested this in the article:

It would be far more beneficial for temperatures to take a more direct route such as:

CPU Die -> 5 W/mK TIM -> Heatsink
I'd just love to see someone here do that very thing. I can't help noticing the almost comical mismatch between the size of my heatsink (H100) and the size of the heat producing die. It's an inefficiency on a scale only possible in the world of personal computers where inefficiency is a necessary evil in order to produce products that are more universally interchangeable. (The H100 can fit a 775, 1155, 1156, or 2011 socket processor, for instance.)

Anyway, here's hoping someone comes up with a solid process for ripping that crap off the top of an IB CPU and creating a decent heat transfer. The new lapping.

it was tested here (true there was no way to apply the max recomanded pressure by intel so this might have affected by a couple degres the result.but still the temperate was too hot!so no it isnt the heat spreader.remember one thing air is one of the worst item for cooling (w/m-k)
so any solution will have to factor in removing air or air bubble.
