Here's Plomin's big GWAS largely failing to replicate in 2008. I visited the Russell Sage Foundation last year and talked to the team of IQ Fellows there: James Flynn, Richard Nisbett, and Bill Dickens. I can verify that Razib is just reporting the consensus. And it's not just a PC consensus: Douglas Knight notes that Rushton agrees with it, as does Arthur Jensen.

What do you mean when you say 'not a PC consunsus'? Do you mean "not just what people say because it is the 'right' thing to say, it's actually real"?

Right.
