    If graphics card works without any glitches, slowdowns or artifacts on highest load with custom settings set, then the temps are safe.

    Anything past 80 is when it's really getting too hot. Even at 80, I consider it to be a little too hot, I don't like my GPU to be above 75C but as long as you do go over 80, it should be fine.

    im now hitting steady 60 c as i was recommended to create a custom fan curve as catalyst isnt the best when controlling fan speeds
