I'm not sure why you are saying that? If you like you can post pics of it and post idle and load temp pics as well. This is part of the purpose of this thread.

I am talking about pics showing both idle and load temps. And, let's not forget that the E8400 has a thermal envelope of 65Watts at stock. So, it's no surprise that it does well with an E8400 overclocked. However, when compared with a thermal envelope of 125Watts or more there appears to be other HS that can do better. However, I'll add it to the 1st post for variety and the CNPS9700 seems to do better then the CNPS9900 at 125watt thermal envelope and higher.

I didn't think there was a specific thermal performance you required to add a HS to the list.
You're right though, there are many better options than the 9700. However it is more than acceptable for OC'd 8400s and other lower thermal envelope CPUs.
