That might be an interesting benchmark, but assuming good cooling isn't exactly unreasonable either.

In datacenter blade servers (i.e. on a cloud VM), I’ve noticed up to 50% downclocking due to thermal throttling when running sustained frequent AVX operations.

I’m sure an exotic watercooled setup will fare much better, but those aren’t generally what we run in production.
