4870x2 VRM "2" - Which is it ? Can you help ?

[texasreefer]

What application are you guys using for the VRM readings?

Uaaauuauaua, at last!

As is said in my previous comment I made third or maybe even a fourth attempt to remount my Accelero Xtreme cooler to my 4870x2. This time I removed the old grease from the GPUs, and removed additional pad from the chip I've mistakenly marked with red X as VRM. It is now in such a way that it barely touches the sink, but the whole pressure it put upon the VRMs between GPUs through two pads (one from original cooler one from accelero cooler). I did not touch the second VRM which is situated aside of the printboard.

My temps are 45 idle, 65 load for BOTH VRMs!!! They are finally identical.

I was playing Crysis, Demigod for 30 mins 1920x1200 8xAA @max settings and it made VRMs to heat only 65C. I was stunned. I was using Everest to monitor. For some reason a new version of RivaTuner does not show VRMs for my 4870x2. I will try to make some recorded graphs not to miss some peaks while I Alt+Tab and post them later.

Thanks to all of you for your help!
