That is sick.
It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.

It would be useful if the authors would include details of the case and fans, in order to give the reader a clearer picture of the actual test conditions.

Since I did this one I will help you out. The case used at that time was a TT Armor Plus full tower. 1-120mm fan in 1-120 mm fan out, Mushkin 800watt PSU 120 mm fan out and the 200 MM side panel fan blowing in. Just about any well ventilated case will provide the results i received. With minimal ventilation the temperatures would indeed rise above what was recorded.
Processor Intel Core I7 920 @ 3.6
Memory Mushkin 998995 Blackline 12GB 9-9-9-24
Motherboard MSI X58 Big Bang
Graphics ASUS GTX 580
Power Corsair AX 1200,
Monitor Gateway UXD3000, LG W3000H, ASUS VG236 x 3
