so, the trick is to run 3d to get it to idle afterwards? cause the card was always that hot @ startup.

sure, i want to watercool em since there are 2 loops for graphics but i thought it is a bug due to mb ^^

on the other hand, kinda strange that the 8.8 catalyst didn't recognize the cards...
ATI 8.9 catalyst drivers have been out for a week now might want to try those. my 4870 idled at between 76c and 80c before i water cooled it. So if your worried about that High temp it is normal for these cards. Water cooling is the way to go unless you want to listen to loud fan noise at least on mine when i went over 40% on the fan it got loud. Take it up to 100% and you will need ear plugs
