736902 2009-01-11 00:27:00 doesnt have to have a fan, but if coolin is an issue you can always put one in your case facing the card, id try resetting the geatsink if you think your up for it thou

you need thermal paste and about 2 minutes, take off heatsink, clean both surfaces (they'l be gunk stuff on it) be a bit careful cleanin the actual card otherwise your could damage it. put a small blob of paste on the chip and sit the heatsink back down firmly so it spreads evenly. also when you got the heatsink back on make sure its sittin flat on the card

try find a download and see if a trial version lets you check temps, if it does you find it under computer->sensor on the left menu, itl have something like gpu, gpu memory, gpu ambient there
