Is a GPU at 70°C dangerous? Solved

Question

Hello,  It's hot, humid, and poorly ventilated, and I've been running a 3D application for several hours without interruption... As a result, my GPU is reaching 70°C (65°C without 3D activity) on my laptop!  Can such a temperature level cause it to fail or reduce its lifespan?   Thank you. -- Internet, managing and sharing content freely.

no problem 70° is a suitable temperature, no risk for the lifespan beyond 85°
it burns at over 100° to 110° roughly

35°^^ lol especially for a gpu and on a laptop
only high-end radiators on a tower can reach such temperatures

Of course it's "HOT" ! ! !  The ideal is between 35-40° Below 35° is the BEST  Happy cooking in the sun.

yes 35° in summer, yeah right^^

on my gtx260 I have an arctic cooling gtx280 weighing 680g with 3 fans of 92mm, it runs at 38° idle and 44° under full 3D load

so 35° on a laptop, come on^^

Salut, 70°C is definitely a good temperature, especially for a laptop! But my 8600 GT sometimes reaches 72°C! (overclocked to 626MHz)

Thank you! I feel reassured! :)

Indeed, when I turned it on again this morning, I noticed that it was immediately at 50°C and quickly rose to 60... So, I think it's good, it's around 60°C, which was normal.

Given that I was curious and looked at what my sensors were displaying for the first time, I was shocked to see those numbers!

Thanks again to all of you for these clarifications!

my 9600 GSO is at 31 ° at idle ... (original heat pipe cooling) and it doesn't exceed 59 ° in full ... so on a laptop 35 ° ... especially with the noob cooling that’s on laptops ... some old crappy fan :)
