    The heatsinks on my ram aren't too hot, around 32° celsius during ati tool test but i put an additional 80mm fan on the top off the vrm heatsink.
    For the blue heatsink you circle,this chip was cooled by my stock cooler, so i decided to put a little heatsink on it.

    After some test, as i said, i decided to put an additional 80 mm fan on the top of the Vrm heatsink, because without active cooling, they get really really hot after 50 minutes of testing. ( around 78° celsius!!! )
    i was a bit affraid when i saw this temp on my infrared thermometer.
    The temp of my gpu was 41° and 51° for the card, and VGpu :1.39V (8800Gt@850/1000)

    The aditional 80mm fan solve this problem, and with it my Vrm heatsinks are now around 29°, and the card around 36°, much better!!!
    The ram like it too and enjoy the active cooling, now i definitely feel better with this temp

    I think Vrm need to be properly cooled if you want an high Vgpu, and maybe that's why i can reach 1.4V or more without blackscreen.
    Because the heatsink and the 80mm fan are very efficient and keep the Vrm really cool on my card.
    that's just a supposition...
