ATI 9800 PRO Temperature Monitor?

Does the 9800 PRO built by ATI have a temperature monitor on it? I have tried to locate the GPU temp in ATI Tray Tools but they are grayed out. I assume then mine doesn't have the sensor, but I have read that the 9800 PROs have the sensor.

Anyone have any idea? It would be ironic if a card that runs this hot didn't even have a sensor.
 
9800XT's were the first to have sensors.
Some 9800Pro's might be built with the R360 core in which case they may have a temp sensor (though you may need to flash to a 9800XT BIOS to be able to use it).
But AFAIK no initial 9800's had temp sensors (R350 core).
 
So what's the normal temp for the 9800 PRO anyway? My CPU reads maximum of 52C on a warn day with the AC off. With my AC on, it usually stays at 47 MAX under load. I read that a good estimate of GPU temps is CPU temp +20 degrees. Is this correct?

So 80-85 degrees should be normal for a 9800 PRO correct?
