sex_monkey :
the temperature variation comes from setting 1.3v on the core, which raises the load compared to the other models at 1.1v. you might want to reduce the voltage and see if stability improves.
I recently purchased an 8800gt for £110 and plan to install an Accelero S1 with a BIOS flash. All in due time.
Under load, the voltage reached 1.3v, but since it defaults to idle assumptions, the actual difference is noticeable. The main reason I switched to non-volt-mod OC was because there was minimal synthetic or real-world gain from those options.

I adjusted the voltage of my Gigabyte 8800GT from stock to 1.05V to 1.15V (1.150mV), which allowed it to run at 725/980/1750MHz. any higher voltage or frequency causes the card to shut down, display a blue screen, show artifacts, or freeze.
