No most cut off Thresholds are 115 to 135C. not F.
60C for a ATI Crossfired card in game sounds way to low.. Normally ATI cards are very hot running cards.
Even if it was hitting 60C and it was laying on your CPU, Heat wouldn't cause it to shut down.. My CPU is overclocked to 3.2 gig it only runs at about 55C
I tell you this much. if your GPU's are only hitting 60C and your computer is shutting down. It wouldn't be from heat. Because even if the cards where making the CPU hotter, 60C wouldn't make a CPU shutdown, a CPU can take more heat thin that.
