VRM Area Thermals

VRM Area Thermals

Lately, someone requested us to list VRM temperatures. We hooked on the sensors and started measuring. We ran the FPU and CPU torture test in AIDA to do that. The chart plot shows the maximum VRM temperature measured at the thermal sensor level. The VRM temperatures listed in the chart are based on the max temp reported by the thermal sensors at the individual VRM stages.

• System setup: standard conditions/default settings 
• We start the AIDA FPU Stress test, leave it running for 15 minutes, and note the highest temperature measured on VRM sensors.  

We also checked the thermals with FLIR technology. The highest reported temperature was 52 degrees Celsius. That’s an excellent result for a B-chipset motherboard. Even a highly overclocked AMD Ryzen 9 7950X wouldn’t be overkill.
