I'm building a new computer, I'm kind of new so bear with me.

My computer specs are:

Intel i7 5820k
GTX 980 2-Way SLI
16GB RAM.
Asus X99 Deluxe MB.
NZXT H440.

I will be using a Kraken x61 to cool my CPU and I'll use 2 Kraken x41s to cool my GPUs.
Normally you can't cool a GPU with the x41, but I'm going to be using the Kraken G10 to be able to cool the GPU.

My question is, i saw many reviews of the G10, and I've read that some people have had problems with the VRAM and VRM which makes it hot, is there anything i can buy to make the VRAM and VRM cooler, maybe some heatsinks or something like that.

And if possible, to link me with the best heatsink or whatever it is which can cool the VRAM and VRM.

Please do not try to persuade me to change any of the coolers.

Thank you.

I use two G10 coolers on my dual 680's, and I've never seen an issue with temperatures on any part of my system. I do not monitor VRM temps very closely, to be fair, though. However, since the G10 has a fan directly on top most of the circuitry, the VRM's should be getting about as much cooling as they do with a regular air cooler.

GTX980 run pretty cool. I would just see how it goes first.

If you need something further, head on over to frozencpu.com and look at their loose heatsinks for memory and VRMs. You'll have to measure how much space you have to what heatsinks you can fit under the G10.
