does limiting frame-rate affect temperature?

What is the reasoning behind trying to stay below 60C ? Today's GPUS are rated for 95 - 97C.
Framerates are not related to GFX load .... for example at any given settings, Crysis 3 might run at 23 fps and put more load on a GPU than WoW at 90 fps.

Thats fine.... my twin 780s run at about 39C under Furmark on the water cooled box .... 44C if I keep fan speeds below audible levels. But on air cooled builds, I overclock the begeezes outta the cards until I hit 82C or so ... that gives me a little room for higher summer temps and still leaves me 10-12 C below throttling levels.
That seems to me like a tad bit overkill.. but whatever floats your boat. This card does do great in terms of temperatures over what i thought it was going to do, and i was looking for some simple solutions. I got it up to 76C at 28% playing Dying Light for a few hours. I like to keep a lot of wiggle room from a graphics cards maximum operating temps. I don't typically use computer components to boil water. 98C... jeez
