It depends on the chipset you're talking about. Generally newer cards can go up to about 80 degrees celcius and remain safe. I'd say anything 70 degrees or below and you're fine. Oh and you're perfectly fine with your temperature dropping when you're out of the game. That's a good thing really since the graphics card isn't rendering anything to the display whilst you're tabbed out.
upâ¢stream. 1. toward or in the higher part of a stream; against the current. 2. directed or situated upstream. 3. against or opposite to the direction of transcription, translation, or synthesis of a DNA, RNA, or protein molecule.
Upstream. A sequence located in front of a particular site relative to the direction of transcription and translation (i.e. located in the 5' direction relative to a particular site).For example, the lac promoter is located upstream of the lacZ structural gene.~. The region extending in the 5' direction from a gene.pstream. The direction on a DNA opposite to the direction RNA polymerase moves during transcription. By convention, the +1 position in a gene is the first trans cribed base; nucleotide s upstream from the +1 position are designated â1, â2, etc. See also downstream.
