[Server-devel] do RPi 3 B+ still need heat sinks?

[James Cameron]

Temperature readings are not comparable between RPi 3 and RPi 3 B+
because of throttling differences, and the metal heat spreader.

Ambient temperature is critical for the separate chip used for
Ethernet and USB; it has a lower maximum operating temperature than
the CPU.

Your best comparison will be between timings of equal workloads with
equal cooling in identical environment.

You can't do this honestly with temperature alone.
