    What is the highest safe temperature for G74/G73 GPUs?
    Anyone knows what is the highest safe temperature for G74/G73 GPUs (AMD 5870M / nVidia 460M / nVidia 560M)?

    My Asus G74SX GPU Avg Temperature when running:
    * StarCraft II @ 1920x1080 Medium Graphic Settings (after an hour of playing): 60 deg C
    * Battlefield Bad Company 2 @ 1920x1080 Medium Graphic Settings (after an hour of playing): 66 deg C

    Thank you.

    Laughably low for a GPU when playing those two games which are some of the most intensive. You dont need to worry until the GPU creeps into the 90's and the CPU the 80's personally. TJ for the CPU is 100oC and GPU around 110oC.
