On the 744 there's no worries if the brake temps don't go into the yellow range (and they seldom do). If they do, the tables give the required cooldown time before attempting a takeoff (likely to ensure RTO performance).

In most cases, 70 minutes will do it, so that's the "rule of thumb" figure we keep in mind.
