For what it's worth, my Pi's sit inside of Adafruit boxes. Nice clean design, not a lot of airflow. With JSP Wiki running and doing a few page hits, temps got to 55-58C on the chip.

I bought these https://tindie.com/shops/ellisgl/raspberry-pi-copper-heat-sink-kit/

and the temps dropped almost 10 degrees C.

Even without the heat sinks I'm well below chip rating, but the heat sinks give a little extra. If I was going to run this as a full server, I would pull the top cover off and clean the cat fur and dust off every few months.

Plus, they are very pretty, like little smoke stacks on the chips
