ATI safe temps + Windows 10

[djanthony93]

Playing Rocket League or Heroes of the Storm I get ~70 °C at 100% GPU usage. How much time can my card handle that temp? Is that good?
Are you experiencing overheating issues running Windows 10 or it is just me? If I use another PCI-e port what that change?

Thank you for your help.

EDIT: I forgot to say that my GPU idle temp is around 40 °C, my room temp is 30-35 °C.

We would need to know what graphics card model that is but that sounds pefectly acceptable as a temprature. And no windows 10 does no effect the physical temprature of your hardware.

That temperature is actually very, very good, especially for an AMD card.
You have no worries, none at all.

I've seen some others mentioning that Win 10 seems to push up the GPU operating temperature but actually can't comment because I swapped to a liquid cooler for my R9 290 just hours before upgrading to Win 10, anyone else like to confirm/deny?

Oh sorry, I have a Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 XT, in some games I got ~78-80 °C, is that too high?
Are Windows 10 drivers based on 8.1 or a newer version of the older ones?

The drivers arnt responsible for cooling your gpu, plus that is perfectly safe for your 7870 to hit it could go another 20 degrees hotter before it got to a bad point
