that's what having a good cooling system for your pc is for D:
Ambient temps still matter when using air cooled systems. And I like my GPU to stay below 45C under load and my CPU under 45C under load. Using all aftermarket air coolers. I don't much care for liquid cooling.
That's just paranoia. 45C is no where near an issue when running. Hell with no load my GPU is at 36-38C...
Average operating temp is 65C.
Hell 45C isn't even half way to the critical point of around 95-98C.
Edit: By critical I mean the point where extended times at X temp is dangerous for the card.
