Ok, Im freaking out. Is this considered a bad temperature?

[oenigmaa]

I have SLI GTX Superclocked Signature 2 680's, and when I'm playing games, it gets to the high 70's sometimes. The TJ Max is 105c, but I still am wondering if this is too hot. I have the nzxt phantom (Full Tower), I got a bit higher RPM fans, with a total of 4 fans. The 2nd 680 usually runs 10 degrees C lower than the primary one. So, is this something I should be worrying about? I have not seen it go up to 80 yet. I just dont want to have my 680's die on me. 

 

Thanks in advance

Also, I idle around 30-40c.

High 70s is nothing. I wouldn't worry unless they get to 90+ C. My 4870X2s all lived for 3+ years at 100+ C all day long.

High 70's? That's waaaay to high. you want 30-40C full load.. like when watercooling.

 

J/K 70's fine. Listen to Waco just this once.

70's is good.

I had those two exact cards in SLI, 70s is fine, 80s is fine, worry when they hit 90s

Nah, you're fine, plenty of headroom left. Freak out if you see one hit 99c like my ye'old 5770 did.

My 480 is currently folding at 82C.  It's been like that for a while.  70s is nothing to worry about at all

70c on air...... Overclock it till its 90c and game on foo.
