Is 165f on a GPU OK?

While I'm playing most of the games I have, my GPU peaks at 165f. I'm just wondering if that's too hot, or OK.

Thanks in advance,

EdiT: Sorry for not including this earlier, but my GPU is an XFX nVidia GeForce 9800 GT.

It's hard to say whats normal without knowing which video card you are using. They will differ in what their load temps are and safe thresholds. Although I can pretty much guarantee you that you are ok. 165f or ~73c is a normal temp for most gpus. Mine will hit 80 at times.

yeah, that's fine. Pretty much every GPU has a threshold of around 100c (212f).

Woah, that's really high compared to mine. Mine peaks at around 65c D:
