Recently i bought a new PC with i7 4790k and a Asus gtx 1060 dual oc. When i'm playing games, the core clock it boost up to 1900mhz. Mostly of the case it stable at 1960-1980mhz. I think that is too much right? On the oficial asus website it says that the base clock it's 1569 mhz and boost 1785. The OC mode the boost is up to 1809 mhz. I didn't overclock the gpu. Why it goes up to 1980mhz? I'm just saying this because when im gaming the gpu temp goes up to 80 degrees. Is this temp too high? What about the boost? I don't want to fry the gpu..

It's all good. you have a good card if it boosts that high.
Anything under 90C is perfectly safe and the card would throttle down automatically were it to get to dangerous level.

Stop being overzelaus and enjoy your rig.

Thank you very much. I appreciate your help!:)
What about the cpu? with stock cooler its heat up to 70 degrees. Is it good? How long could last?
 


Very good. So long as never goes above 80c you are fine and dandy adn it will last alot more than it actual viability as a CPU.(this is assuming you are on Intel)
