How hot is the GPU on the backside of the Geforce3? Too hot to touch?

[PeeluckyDuckee]

My Hercules Prophet III's backside GPU is WAY too hot to touch. Didn't notice that with the Visiontek. Have a 7200rpm Delta blowing straight at it, and boy oh boy can I feel the heat blowing out from it.

Any other Herc owners/Geforce3 owners care to comment? Thx

BTW - I don't overclock video cards, at least I dare not yet under such heat

Plucky

Good morning/ When air cooled, my visiontek would get fairly warm at 220/500, but after putting a water block on the vid, back side temp taken with a probe never exceeds 80f.
