This is probably super late, but the 8400GS can handle temperatures of about 100C before damaging. Since it's such a weak card and already dying, I'd say not to panic until 120C. I can run my 7970 with the fans off for a good three hours before they kick on for five minutes when the temperature hits 45C. Basically, if you have a case fan, you'll be fine.

Thanks for the info!

But it’s a little too late considering that I now have a new computer with a graphics card that actually works correctly, but thanks nonetheless.
