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.
- System setup: normal 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’ve put the measurements taken with pyrometer and thermal probes connected to the Lamptron SM436 PCI Fan/RGB controller
We also checked the thermals with FLIR technology. The highest reported temperature was ~54-55 degrees Celsius same as indicated by the Lamptron controller. That’s an excellent result for a Z-chipset motherboard. We think that even a highly overclocked 12900K wouldn’t be overkill.
