So I have a 9590 on a 990fx R 2.0
My CPU is cooled by a custom EK kit. Currently I'm stress testing with blend @ 5.0ghz (25 x 200) @ 1.464v (75% LLC, ultra high); everything else at auto.
My socket temps are spiking up to 64C whereas the core temps are barley tapping 40C. I've been told the VRM's have a huge impact on the socket temps, is this true? Or is this the product of water kits in general?
Forgive my lack of terminology, but by VRM's I mean the two heat sinks directly to the left and bottom of the CPU (if I'm incorrect). Thank you!
