so I currently have 2 8800gs's sli and I have them currently overclocked to match each other (XFX AND EVGA) I wanted to push them a little bit higher to match an 8800gt speed and I ran ATItools for 6 minutes and got no artifacts, but the temp of one card reach 69*c (evga) while the other held at 57.

So my question is what kind of temperatures can video cards handle and what are good temperatures under load? (Typically play TF2 and L4D).
