Default My GTX VRM cooling :D

LOL it is a little ghetto but it works well I just had some heat sinks laying around (they are the kind that come with the Mashashi) so I put them on the back of the card where the VRM are and it does a good job <.<

IDK I cannot find the temps sadly.... but I can tell you this much, they are freaking hot without the fan and are much cooler with it. What can I use to measure them?

gpu-z shows vrm temps, click on the sensors tab, and look to where it shows vddc, everything under that is vrm, otherwise everest shows vrm aswell.
