Mani, thanks for the detailed post. I really appreciate it when someone explains their reasoning such as you have. I do have one question, though. If Intel's heat spreader does such a good job at reducing the thermal liability, doesn't that cancel out the disadvantage of the actual die having a lower tolerance, thus making the argument moot? Besides, isn't the normal temperature for a properly cooled system at the point of contact well below either rated maximum?
