Wow... Sorry, but where did you get that info from?? "Some" is AMD, the manufacturer of the CPUs, say they run at (depending on model) either 90 or 95°;C. Intel sez about the same. So why is AMD so different than Intel? Intel sez it...so it's OK?? But when AMD sez it, and it's not OK??
There are many AMD systems that run fine, year after year, at 60°; or higher... Why perport this inaccurate "kiss-of-death"??? It is simply not so.
The laws of physics state that any device that burns 60 or so Watts of energy burns just that: 60 Watts of energy. It doesn't matter what brand it is, it still obeys the lays of physics. Period.
So, why is AMD different? .... it isn't.
