<It depends on .. the thermal resistance of the particular package type, the thermal resistance of the contact between the processor package and heat sink, the thermal resistance of the heat sink (which depends on the airflow) and it depends on the temperature of the air flowing over the heat sink.>

John, thanks for lecturing on applied college physics.
Last time I checked, the room temperature remained
the same as in the era of pre-1GHz/60C Pentium chips,
as well as major packaging features, altogether
with thermal properties of mass-produced heat sinks.
BTW, the latter remained the same for the last
several billion years as well :)

P.S. Please do not act like a jerk, you should
know exactly what 60C junction temperature mean
for a semiconductor device that dissipates 50W.
There is no point do dispute obvious, only
PhDs like Paul Engel can do this.
