High fermenting temps

My beers really shot through the roof when I started controlling both the yeast pitch rate (at the pro level), and fermentation temp. Fermenting ales towards the low end has been working really really well. Lagers I'm more towards the mid.
 
My IPA is bubbling like mad after 48 hrs (started at 12 hrs), churning as if there was a stir bar in the carboy. Temp zoomed to 77F today (house was warm, AC OFF) Moved to cooler basement.

Safale 05

Will this cause any problems?

I have noticed peach like notes from US-05 when fermented around 70. Never taken it up to 77... Depending on the beer you might not notice it at all. IPAs have strong hop flavors that tend to mask other things, so you might be okay. Then again you might have a more fruity IPA that you would like. Since you caught it early, RDWHAHB... :)
