"You should know yourself that you are wrong on this. "

Which is why I qualified the statement. While I knew that the Coppermines were originally in an organic package, I wasn't sure if that had changed with later, more power hungry parts. And yeah, I knew that the primary thermal path is through the back of the die, there will still be some radiated (if nothing else) through the front where it is facing part of the organic package. Thermal conductivity is not my concern as much as the softening point of the organic package. Heat that is conducted through the pins would have the same problem.

I stand corrected on this.
