If you're looking for actual temperatures, check out http://sysdoc.pair.com.

In general, don't worry about it.  If you don't overclock the card, heat is
not a problem.  Mine uses a passive heatsink and it's just fine.  The Diamond
and Hercules and Asus use fans.  The Asus and Hercules cards run cold.
