i7 7700K + EKWB Supremacy Evo, Regular vs "Goofy"?

Dear All,

 

Has anybody done any temperature comparisons between the CPU block of the EKWB supremacy evo in a "regular" orientation and a "goofy" (rotated 90 degrees) configuration specifically for the KabyLake chips? Any temperatures here are grateful. I am aware of the previous tests with Haswell, but I am particularly interested for Kaby Lake.

 

Thanks in advance

there's a temperature difference?

Some people would tell you so, but it seems to vary specifically between different processors and different blocks, so I was curious if anybody had done the experiment for KabyLake.

interesting. so it depend on block design and if it's diagonally symmetrical or not in it's coverage of the IHS
