Re: "One possible explanation is that in a 4-way system there is twice the heat being dissipated as in a 2 way system - 4 CPUs vs 2. Also, the 450NX chip set - does it have more than one chip? I know the 440BX has only one chip in the northbridge."

The 450NX is 4 or 5 chips, I think. And yes, this all seems to get down to air flow/heat sinks etc. DEC solved a much worse problem.
