For what its worth, Sapphire 5830's cooler does not have dedicated RAM cooling, and they use GDDR5 @ 1Ghz (4GHz effective).
It's probably safe to say RAM itself does not need any dedicated cooling unless it is heavily overclocked and you are concerned about getting that extra edge and feel temperatures are limiting it. If you're really curious, simply run 3dmark or some 3d intensive program for a bit and put your finger on (or behind on the PCB) one of the RAM modules if you can.
But really if you're just mining, you should be underclocking RAM and cooling need for RAM should be nonexistant.
