My GPU temp stays at 61C normal use while playing games reaches 70. Can anyone tell me is it fine or something is wrong?

Thanks

Nothing to worry about. The GPU in my old i8600 used to push past 90C in games by comparison! That is well within the thermal limits of the component. Just remember to periodically clear the fans of dust and you'll be right

My Inspiron 6400 GPU temp is around 52 deg celsius, mostly it hovers at 60 deg if the laptops on my bed (which blocks the vents).

 

If you are concerned with the temps, you might want to consider re-installing the GPU with a good thermal paste, and clean out the vents underneath the laptop frequently. I am planning to do a major cleanup when I change out the hinges.
