Safe GPU Overclocking Temperature?

[Saar Koren]

I have a Sapphire Radeon HD 7770. It usually runs at 1000 core clock and 1125 memory clock. I overclocked it to 1150 core clock and 1250 memory clock. The temperature maxed at 61 Celsius, is this a safe temperature?

By safe I mean can I run it overclocked at this temperature for about 2 hours of gaming a day? I know my computer won't crash or anything, but will it have a significant impact on the GPU's life span? Will it affect the rest of the system?

Yes, that's a perfect temperature. Be wary if it ever gets around 85C.
