Hmm.
I've got a Daystar PowerPro 80 with RAM expansion for a Quadra 650/700/9x0 and an Apple Power Macintosh Processor Upgrade (APMPU) for 630-type Macs. Both run extremely hot.
The Daystar card has a fan on the end of it that is supposed to draw air over the heatsink, but the Apple card does not. In my 630, the Apple card seems to run just fine (the case has a fan right above the CPU). I've run the Daystar card in a Q800 (but it was pulled from a 950 - woe is me for not grabbing the 950 along with the card!) without too much difficulty, but I did find that it crashed when I inadvertently disconnected the fan.
I also found that the APMPU appeared to be broken (death chimes on startup) when I tried to enable it using the wrong control panel. Which software are you using?
Peace,
Drew
