Hmm well, Rainbow Six Vegas thanks to some shoddy porting work by Ubisoft is one of the more demanding games out there. Needless to say Pro evo isn't. This means it only happens under high load. If you say the air coming out the back of the PC is warm, then the PC is presumably being cooled properly. The X1950 Pro will have a small vent that occupies one of your backplates, which is where its fan exhausts. How hot is the actual metal of that during Vegas? If the fan isn't running fast enough, that bit of metal should become very hot (it'll get quite hot normally, about as hot as you can bear to touch without it being unpleasantly painful, but if it's scalding hot, you've got issues)
If the GPU seems cool enough, perhaps it's the cooling in the rest of your PC? How many case fans do you have?

Indeed, the 8300GS is an awful card, only really useful for old 2D stuff or web-based flash games.
