I noted in another comment I needed eight x4 NVMe across two x16 slots in a very dense chassis. I was pleasantly surprised at the temperatures.
The hardware is in a colocation facility and I like to have plenty of buffer with standard operating temperatures in case of a cooling failure, etc. Is maintaining 40C necessary under normal conditions? Nope, but it's definitely a nice to have regardless.
