One of my systems has a water block on both the CPU and a heavy duty sandwich-style air cooler on the graphics card. I never worry about those parts overheating. I've got about a 7% overclock on the processor and the poor graphics card is working harder than a mule tugging a barge on the Erie Canal. I don't even monitor the temperature in that computer's case or its components. Part of the reason I feel comfortable not knowing the Celsius status of the box is that I've outfitted it with terrific air cooling. I can practically chill a beer in that case. The only way I could get it cooler would be to buy an air conditioner compressor.
