I remember reading a while ago, like a year ago about how removing the heat spreader didn't improve heat transfer that much, and in some instances, made it worse.
I can't remember where I put that link, but the test was conducted by that guy who made his own CPU die simulator, and the results were inconclusive.
I'm wondering if it's still controversial, or if removing the heatspreader from, say, an Opteron, is just a given. Any thoughts? Thanks guys!
