did some testing today with my VRM. My card even though watercooled and the VRM's are heatsinked (What a !) the temps were still high. Upper 80's while in 3dMark Vantage. Furmark however no matter what crashes immediately, dunno why. Someone really needs to come up with a good aftermarket sink that goes on those VRM's cuz ramsinks on those things are the biggest pain in the ass ever.

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH these ramsinks wont stick on these little VRM's! Got so sick of them falling off I just pulled em off and left the fan blowing right on them. Temps didnt change so I guess ramsinks dont do squat for them. Still only gets in the 80's during my gaming or Vantage.
