k ive put em on like that anyway. If its on wrong or i need more heatsinks then ill just get the turbo module asap
i think i needed more heatsinks and thermal paste. 75 idle isn't good, it's worse than before lol.. I'm not gonna even dare play a game
actually i think it's just thermal paste. And I should of cut one of the voltage regulator heatsinks in half so it fitted better
The smaller you make the heatsink, the worse it's going to cool the vrm chip. Bad move.
im gonna buy some new ones for the vrms. The ones I got with my cooler were made for the chips to be like

and lol k no running games until I fix my cooler. Ran up a source game and my temp shot up to almost 100
If you're talking about the core temperature being over a hundred, then the problem is with the main heatsink's contact with the GPU.
