60+ is getting up there. That's a bit too warm to be using. It's not alarming, but not good either. I'd invest in better air cooling.

Depends on which Q6600 you have, check the code on your IHS.
SLACR SL9UM Even if you have the SLACR, while technically safe on paper, the higher FSB places additional stress on the components and you want to stay roughly 5 degrees under max at least. What's the ambient in the area where your computer is? No matter how good your cooler is, ambient is still going to be a large impact on your final temps.

reaching 67C while playing a game is definitely not safe since it would pass well over 72C if a stress test would be run
get some better cooling on that baby or lower that OC
