Saphire 9800 Pro runs real hot.

[vegetto714]

I got a Saphire 9800 pro 256MB and it runs extremely hot when I boot up and just go into windows. I can't even keep my hands on the ramsinks or I will get burned. Are the 9800's suppose to get this hot? I just installed everything with my new system.

My hercules also runs quite hot, i got worried too, but it seems to be fine.

Might be an idea to get some air blowing over the sinks i.e. a case fan. Should help.
