Quote:Btw any chance you could point me to a graph comparing stock temps with sandy bridge, can't remember seeing one (it's a shame 'Anandtech' didn't include one in their preview).
You don't need one actually. Intel has published the TDP values, the high end quad cores are 77w TDP while sandy bridge is 95w TDP. So unless intel is lying to OEMs (or the stock cooler is way worse than sandy bridge which wouldn't make any sense) ivy bridge will run cooler.
