Is my 6800gt running hot at 67C?

I noticed a slight shadow error in Dawn of War yesterday. It showed a shadow line running out of turrets in a direction. I then checked my Evga 6800gt temp and it showed 67C. What is the standard high temp allowable? Note: I ran my computer all weekend, although over half the time was spent on desktop just downloading files.

Got an eVGA 6800GT, it idles around 58C, and under load, goes to around 64C. Your card is fine. If it gets too hot, it will throttle the core and memory speed back. I like a cool comp, so I have some good airflow. My CPU idles at 36C, and load goes to 44C.
