Laptop overheating

I have a Dell Precision 5560, the motherboard and fans of which have just been replaced because it was overheating. I now find that this "new" system idles with a processor temp of 71°C which is just totally unacceptable in my opinion. When under load the CPUs and GPUs are power or thermally throttled with the CPU temp reaching 100°C.

The Dell engineer says this is normal, I say he is lying to cover up the fact that this system is poorly designed. Opinions please, the more heated the better (boom-boom!)
