God knows how much heat is put out at 3.72 Ghz. Its hotter than I ever remembered for any cpu I've owned, and I've owned plenty of them.
All I know is that my ambients in my room are also about 22 degrees. The system still doesn't have a DeltaT of 43 degrees.
I will tell you that I don't know how taxing TAT is, but I have had all four cores loaded at 100% for more than a week now 24/7 without rebooting. It may not be TAT, but 100% load is still 100% load (using Folding@Home, which is pretty darn taxing), and at times Orthos on top of that, or some game. The system temps are not 62 degrees though.
I will go find TAT and try.
