For CPUs pretty much under 80c if fine, for GPUs under 90c. Not saying you can go over, however if you keep them under those you will definitely not have heat problems.

well i was looking at gaming everyday. but thanks for your input everyone. It makes me feel better when my system is under those temps and now dont have to wory as much.  I wasnt sure if mid 80s for gpu was to hot or not and didnt realize i could let my i5 run alot hotter then my 8150.
