    i would think thats safe my 6800gt agp idles at about 58c and gaming it goes to about 70c to 73c. ive had my 6800 a pretty long time and it still works great. in the temp display by default the threshhold is 120c, not sure how safe that is lol but i would say your temps are pretty normal in my opinion. im no expert though so maybe someone else will comment also.
