Oy, now I'm confused!
I think the issue is these temperatures are being measured by a probe at the heat spreader which is going to be several degrees cooler than measuring the die temperature using something like Core Temp. Furthermore, it doesn't help that they were running an open motherboard test setup. I wouldn't be surprised if these were 10-15C away from what Core Temp would report on the same setup in a case.
Exactly what I was thinking. Compare the numbers in this test to what Kyle got in one of the first heat test on the i7 920 using core temperature readings.
Looks a lot more like the temps we see at home using Core Temp or RealTemp.
