Bundle Quality Control Checklist - Low Max Temp ?

I would take that with a pinch of salt. I would suggest that they are tested on the desk or similar in an air conditioned build dept. Once they are in a case with restrictions then that temp will climb.
 
Ahhh, you see I read that as "Maximum Temperature [reached before the system cut out]"

Not, as in, the highest the temperature recorded during the test. I was concerned that my new setup had a thermal 'ceiling' of 73C...

Perhaps I should contact support, or do we think have I've simply grossly misinterpreted the meaning of that value?
 
They wouldn't sell it if that was the case. It's the maximum temperature that the cpu hit while using whatever test they used which is why I said it was pretty good. Like ZXSpectrum says though, if that test was done on a open test bench or in a room at a constant temperature then the actual temps in a case will be higher.
