How hot is hot?

How hot is hot for a GPU to run at? I'm running two BFG 6800 GT OC's. It idles at around 60-65 C (one gpu is usually a few degrees hotter than the other) and can go as high as 75-77 C after a lot of gaming.

that seems like ok temperatures

That's too hot, get some better case cooling and you should be ok.

If it were me 60C is the highest I'd want it to go.

those temps are fine. don't worry until its over 100. Remember cleanslate, its the GPU we're talkiing about, not a CPU . Though if you are a cooling freek 60 is ideal

My two BFG 6800GTs do about the same, I wouldn't worry about it. The threshold for these cards is 120 so its well within range.
