Hey folks, i'm wondering what exactly where / what the "VDDC Phase #1, VDDC Phase #2 and VDDC Phase #3" sensors / chips are located on my card?

They seem to be the only thing that gets hot when i overclock it, and i think the card might be dead anyhow.

Would just be nice to know where that chip(s) is located on the card anyhow.

Thanks!
 
Those are the VRMs. Where exactly they are will depend on the type of PCB you have, be it reference of a AIB's custom design. Usually towards the rear of the card, but googling will point you in the right direction.

Here's the reference PCB.
