If you want more cooling for it, you need to Mod it.
I've seen pics of water pipes moded on to the 9800 and other video cards.
There's lots of stuff you can do to put extra cooling on such a card.
I have a fan on my ATI All In Wonder 128Pro 32Mb Ram
I also pulled off the garder on the tuner so as to blow some air on there
too.
The main tuner chip gets the air, and I think that's the main place where
it's needed.
