I was running 7.1 cats, I'll update now.

Thanks
I have the 1300 and heat seems to be OK. I have done nothing for more cooling. I guess you tried the old canned air to clean off dust? Fan doing its thing? Make more vent holes?

Maybe some guys with this card might have the answer to the heat problem you are having.
