"ONLY" 82w!

Do you know how much heat is put out by a 60w lightbulb?

No - because light is also put out as a part of the 60 watts.

So, if a 60w bulb puts out as much heat as it does, why should a CPU with
heat dissipation of 82w (let alone 103w!) be considered to be within
acceptable energy wastage?
