Is 62ºC motherboard temperature safe?

My current PC consists of:
Antec P182 w/ 2xS-Flex@600 rpm at top and rear exhausts
Gigabyte GA-MA790X
Phenom II X3 720 + Asus Triton 75 + Slipstream@900-1200 rpm
Powercolor HD 4770 (stock, bought a few days ago)
When gaming, the graphics card makes the motherboard temperature rise to 62ºC, while the CPU has yet to rise over 54ºC. This happens with my old 3650HD + Accelero S1 and with the new graphics card.
Is 62ºC safe for the motherboard? I can add an intake fan, which will lower temperatures dramatically, but I'd like to avoid adding extra fans.
