As long as it stays cool it should be fine. If you're using the xlr8 
software it will warn you if the temperature gets too high (assuming you 
have thermal monitoring on). Someone else already mentioned that the 
temperature readings aren't very accurate. The xlr8 control panel, Gauge 
Pro, and other utilities on my machines never give the same temperature 
readings.

Have you tried running the bus at 50MHz and working from there?
