does the heatsink get hot at default speed? can you detach the fan and see if the card crashes and after what time? (probably not but asking doesnt hurt )

If we break it, we don't get another one. Therefore I ain't testing that!
nah keep the heatsink on. just turn the fan off and report what happens
so does the heatsink get hot? do you think it can be cooled passively (at default speed) with a BIG copper heatsink instead of the small HS/fan combo?
Any way to take temperature readings off the chip?
If not, any rough estimations of temp? For example, when running some video intensive app, is the heatsink too hot to touch, can you touch it for a few seconds, or can you leave your hand there without it ever getting too hot.
Any idea of the RPM of the heatsink fan?
