   You can prolly push into the 75+ range (although Ive encountered cases of 95+ with no permanent damage). As a general guideline, try not to go in excess of a 30°C jump from cold boot temp to stressed-OC'd temp and you should be fine. If you do, consider a new cooling solution.

   Oh, you AMD people who think 95 is a nice cool temp.
   
   This website lists different max temps based on the different CPU. http://www.heatsink-guide.com/maxtemp.htm

   95 is a good stress temp.
