The numbers posted do not make sense.

41-43F is refergerator temps. probably 41-43C

127C should shut down the system(an hour before). most have an automatic switch that sut them down well before that, and if not, the processor probably will not work at 127C. 127F is about 50C, which is plenty warm.

a few mega-buck mil spec semiconductors will run at 125 C.

My new desktop econo-computors run new AMD processors. I notice the fans are miniscule compared to the old fans on pentiums. I like that. they are very quiet. I presume they use less power, and make less heat.
