    Hey everyone,


    I've been ocing my cpu and gpu. But I was wondering, my gpu runs <66C.. is that a safe temperature for gaming?

    570/1400/850.

    Is this okay? I may be wrong..

    I was wondering though... is it normal when I put my computer on "performance" for my cpu speed to be THIS high? (oc'd)

    1. That is perfectly safe.

    2. yes. That is the Turbo boost kicking in.

    Yes all fine.
    You might want to get a cooler or just lift the back up to get better airflow.

    The M11x cools really well, so I doubt it will be a problem :)
