Hey all! I just completed my very first gaming build. I have never owned anything so capable and I am just through the roof with excitement. I wanted to see what my gpu was really capable of so I ran Valley Benchmark on ultra. The temperature reached 80c after running it for a few minutes, switching camera angles, and moving around. Is this too hot? The card is the EVGA 970 ssc 4gb if that helps. Let me know your thoughts. The last thing I want is to burn a hole in my system. Thanks!

It's best to keep the card at/below 75c if you can. Max allowed temp for the 970 is 98c.
