Are these temperatures safe? GTX770 4GB
Right now I am running crysis 2 with 45-55 FPS on ULTRA 1080 with a Zotac GTX 770 4GB GPU and FX-6300 CPU.


Despite the FPS my GPU's temperatures are reaching 66-70 sometimes and near the 50s during other times; While my cpu peaks at about 42C.

I need to know when I should start being worried about prolonging the life of my GPU. Will i ruin its life and potentially break it continuing to play at 70c? (I play games for a long period of time) I am a little worried on the maximum temperature of the card, and I am not sure if 70c is way extremely high considering the game that I am trying to play on ultra.

Can someone please help me? (BTW i have msi afterburner with the fan on auto for my gpu)

Those temps are fine! Especially in Crysis 2. :) 
If you'd like lower temps, consider buying better quality (or more) case fans.

it's normal for 770 reach 70c on full load, it is designed to go up to 80 C


They are designed to run @ 90 flat, soldering melts @ 105. :) 

My GPU runs @ 40 idle and 60/70 on a heavy load: ATI 6970 Sapphire 2gb haha

Yeah, anything above 60 is quite worrying imo, try to get better airflow into the case with more case fans?
