The question is, why don't they put stuff like that on a card? 😀

cause from some extreme ocing (LN2 and so on) this wont make ZERO difference for +90% of cards out there, as "limits" are designed/given by amd/Nv. thats why even biggest and best phase/vrm/power designs are getting the same oc any FE edition will get (Nv 10xx). only cooling will affect it more, so i would rather spend money on AIO LC card then this...

Thanks for clarifying what I already was aware of 😀 I was more putting it out there as a joke, not the best one apparently. Yeah especially since Pascal, boost 3.0 (or as I'd like to call it, the NV puzzle box), overclocking is severly limited by temperature. That's why I'm doing fine running my 1080Ti FE with a full cover water block 😉

Insteresting but these 3x 6-pin power (225w) says much

Somewhat unrelated, this kind of gets me to wonder why VRMs never became slotted components on motherboards. Sometimes all I want is a cheap motherboard with the most barebones features, but I want a good VRM for good overclocking. Other times, I may want a feature-rich PC, but I intend to use a low-power CPU. For some CPUs like Ryzen or locked-clock Intels, I feel like VRM quality is largely irrelevant due to how limited the OCing is, so it makes me wonder if many of the high-end boards are more expensive than they really need to be due to their VRMs.

This would be ideal schimid . But... why would they give you the 1 thing you just want ? Instead of selling you a complete package? And since this is how the market is none will complaint if they keep it as is, that said i think desktop pc modularity is good to begin with ! No complaints from me!

I understand what you're saying - for most people, they just don't care enough. Generally speaking, enthusiasts want the complete package (all the fancy features and the nice VRM) while people on a budget don't care about serious overclocking or whatever, they just want something that has what they want and no frills. That's pretty much how boards are currently designed, so it does make sense why VRMs were never swappable. I personally don't think we will ever see swappable VRMs on desktop PCs, but I can dream.

Hmm back on late 70's early 80's i know you had to use a soldering iron to put together your pc well was before i was even born , but could you do for example change such components your self back then? Schim let's start a kick starter for the first modular motherboard of our time!
