I know there isn't much info released, but the two guys being able to put their hands on the cooler for longer than a second is pretty nice to see. It doesn't mean anything, but I hope the desktop CPU runs that cool.
Heatsinks don't get hot enough to be untouchable, at least not with the massive airflow rackmount servers can shove through them, certainly not in open air (case cover is off).
No fans directly pushing air onto the HS. Look at the bobcat stuff. ridiculously small very low power yet designed to go up 90 in a fanless environment and many users are easily seeing 80+ temps. These fan-less units are scorching hot to touch.
Mr. Obvious, I was talking about the rackmountable Supermicro server in that video, which has four 40mm 12-17K RPM fans that push a fuckload of air into the heatsinks. Of course completely passive systems will have quite hot heatsinks, as they only rely on convection for cooling, which is very inefficient.
except the case is open, and those 12-17k rpm fans have lost much of their efficiency since there is nothing to channel the air over the heatsink.
Since it didn't seem to be running any load, it could of been at idle...
possibly that too I'm just saying those fans are useless with an open case
They still push some air through. In addition those heatsinks are big slabs of copper, so they can dissipate heat a lot faster than aluminium. Also, those CPUs could be idle, or low voltage, or both.

12-17k rpm is crazy, those things must be loud as hell.

usually have a million Ethernet wires running about which if not careful you can trip over.
