Your comments are beginning to sound a bit antagonistic. Let's end it here.

Just to point out those are thermal images of a v1 Raspberry Pi (note the lack of mounting holes introduced with the v2). The temperatures on a v2 Raspberry Pi could be quite different, particularly in the region of the LAN chip as the v2 fixes the design flaw that drove up the temperature of that chip.

That's odd, as the CPU will throttle once it hits 85C (v1 and v2).

I was merely pointing out that anyone with a professed background in heat transfer would know that air is an insulator, not a conductor. If this has upset you in some way, then I do apologise for allowing facts to stand in the way of conjecture but I was simply expressing an opinion based on those facts and on my own personal experiences, and as I stated previously, my Raspberry Pi needs heat sinks on at least two of its components, which was the premise behind my original post.
