I don't believe that jap thing. My ivy at 4.6ghz produces the following temps

Which are very close to this heatspreader-less cpu
Ignore its max temperatures, I was trying prime at 4.8 and 4.9ghz.

I would be flabbergast if they replaced the TIM with liquid pro and put the IHS back on and still got 20C better temps.
Edit: I think I'll take one for the team!

Also your max temps of 80c are nowhere near close to 64c.
You say ignore the max temps, how can we when we see 80c, and if you were testing at different voltages and speeds then realtemp would have been reset surely?
Well its quite simple, it was under full load as shown at 100% with 4.6Ghz.
I'll go do it again with IBT and repost when I get back from work.
, I would be careful with IBT, lots of people say not to run it as it will hit 100c+ with it, just so you are aware.I would be flabbergast if they replaced the TIM with liquid pro and put the IHS back on and still got 20C better temps.

Try it without the IHS too, I bet it's better than using it you just need to be very careful not to damage the core, use bare minimum amount of pressure to get a square contact.
But that could have been a ten second run to get to that for all we know, I would be careful with IBT, lots of people say not to run it as it will hit 100c+ with it, just so you are aware.
Would you like a loaf of bread with my screenshot?!?!I ran IBT at 4.7Ghz and it didn't go up in flames.
Why would I post a ten second run exactly? I am a little too old to be posting lies on the interwebsWould you like a loaf of bread with my screenshot?!?!
The temperatures were after a hour at that speed, I had it at 4.8ghz but was trying to find a nice compromise between power draw, heat and what not.
Will post more tomorrow when I'm back from work.

as I have one of my own, thanks though.I think usually around the same with high end air/all in one water cooling. Although 4.6GHz isn't a poor overclock by any means I just would have liked to see a little more improvement between CPU generations than what is essentially just a little power saving from improved efficiency and IPC.
