Hey guys, I'm running a 5850 with a AC TTP on it, and while it itself performs very well, the stock vrm/ram plate that I modded to fit the TTP's heatpipes, just isn't cutting it for the VRMs. It's fine in games, but in furmark, VRMs shoot up to 110c after a minute (before I stop it) at only 1.225v, which is a shame, really, because i'm stable at 1000/1300 at those volts, and it runs alright at 1070/1250 at 1.275v before it locks up of overheating VRMs. I was looking into the thermalrite VRM coolers, but what would I use to cool the memory and that VRM by the CFX connector? Ideas?



Gpu temps under furmark (renamed), about 25c lower than VRM. /facepalm

All help is appreciated :)
