Yeh, rambus gets too hot. Try fan cooling it. If you have a 533 fsb cpu then the memory is being overclocked too. Can you set the memory multiplier to 3x?

I would also try try backing down the AGP multiplier too. Unless your board has a freq lock feature in BIOS, the AGP, PCI and memory are all being over clocked too.

Plus that is pretty hot for the cpu. Try an after market heatsink or some thing.

Hope that helps a little. Good luck.
