I got a 2 suggestions
1) I don't know what kind of HS you 've got I got a aluminum HS and I installed a coldplate between my CPU and my HS and the temp under load dropped 5C (I have a Fop32)
I did the same thing, but it only bought me a 2 deg C
improvement. Still an easy/cheap/passive improvement on my FOP32. -Hoot-
2) ground your HS I know it sounds silly but it worked for me I used a little copper wire and attached it from my HS to my case, it didn't drop my temp but it did drop my Vcore 0.10 Volts and that is much (longer lifespan for CPU)
This. I'm gonna try in a few minutes. Didnt realize that the material the core was comprised of was conductive or should I say semiconductive
