Safe Temps for Mobile GPU (GTX 1070)
Hello,

I've been looking online for information regarding the maximum "safe" temperature for the mobile variant of the GTX 1070 (not the Max-Q version). All the resources I found only discussed the desktop version. My laptop is an Alienware R3(2017) and I usually use MSI Afterburner to overclock my 1070 with a +200MHz on the clock speed and a +500MHz on the memory speed. The hottest my card has gotten is 68 degrees. What is a good temperature range for a card like this?

Thank you.

The temperature limit before Max-Q GPUs throttle is at least around 74 C, 68 C should be fine.

GTX 1070 Mobile: Max Temperatur, 94 °C.
Usually it should not exceed 86 °C because then it downclocks.
