Benchmarks - temperature

Idle temperature is good for the CPU. Hammer it with all-core Prime95 load and a different picture emerges. We contacted Wired2Fire and they commented that 'internal testing indicates P95 temperatures should be below 80°C, tested with an ambient 25°C-27°C room temperature'. We tested the machine with an ambient office temperature of 25.7°C

The Radeon card is based on the reference design and as such an 85°C under-load temperature is to be expected.
