My PC hardware with bios temperature warning has the threshold set at
60; while I've never seen a Cobalt product run that high, it should be
right at the high end of acceptable.

Could, though more likely it would subtly affect system life.

Even our RaQs with broken fans (we only find out about them when we
visit the colo) never run near that high.
