Does GPU memory chips needs cooling?

Just like any other electronics...they need to stay below a certain temperature.
Whether or not they need cooling...is a function of the application.

A little. Relatively low power SMD components like GDDR memory draw around 2W per chip mainly for IO sink the bulk of their heat into the PCB so the PCB itself needs at least some airflow to shed enough heat to remain at a safe operating temperature.
