VRM Loop Help

[n00bftw]

Hi,

What is the optimal way for me to include my VRM's into the loop, I'm not even sure if it's worth it tbh, but it seems like a wasted opportunity. Would lower VRM temps mean lower CPU temps or vice-versa?



The temps of the motherboard, PCH and VRM don't go past 60c while gaming.

You're adding more heat to cool... it won't mean lower temps for the CPU. But will mean lower temps for the VRM. I don't imagine you're thermally limited there in any way, so... it would just be for fun, really.

Yeah really not worth it.

Unless my eyes deceive me the water block is already installed on the board so the only expense is a couple of fittings and some hose. It will add a bit more restriction and a couple degrees but if it's a decent pump it shouldn't matter too much. As for order whatever seems to work aesthetically as it shouldn't affect temps much

I think a decent run would be:
GPU - top rad - VRM - CPU

Would make for a clean look.

If you do end up going ahead send pictures of the completed loop.
