Dunno about 5000 series but my 4890 VRMS got hot hot at lower volts then that until I fixed the heatsink... I would have sinks on the VRMs before I put them on the memory.
But I also do not know how well the cold radiates off the GPU pot.. VRMs are back kinda far from the GPU though I thought... couple inches at least.
