[SOLVED] safe temperature for graphics card

Although i have been a geek for about 20 years i have never been sure of what an ideal or dangerous temperature is for a graphics card , At what temperature should i bee worried , as games become more demanding then temperatures get higher . My average temperatures are around 65 degrees. My system was custom built about 4 years when the gtx 1080 first came out.

Solution
Anything below 100 Deg C is a safe temperature. The temps you're seeing as of now is actually good and as time goes on, you might need to tone down the in-game details to maintain favorable temps.
