temperature problem?

[A person]

the exact temperature on my geforce4 ti4200 is unknown, but when i touch the backside of the gpu right in the middle of all the little resistor thingies, it's very hot to touch, while the heatsink is just barely warm. it goes for the stock heatsink, the gf4 hs from thermaltake, and an intel p3 fan i stuck on myself. should i be worried???

if it works, I wouldn't be.

put a heatsink to backside of the gpu...

it's not a real solution 4 cool your card,
but enough 4 your card's health...

this seems to be a problem with all nVIDIA cards mine also runs very hot??? i hope they do something about this problem in the future
