and the socket temps reported are in line with those from this summer

The symptoms are of a cooling problem. I would not assume that a good socket temperature reading corresponds to good cooling. The problem I had was with heat distribution, not cooling. The heat sink compound had dry spots and areas of the chip were not in contact with the heat sink.
