How to cool down VRMs on motherboard? HELP!

[Emppulis]

Hi, recently my VRMs on my motherboard have started to thermal throttle my PC. What is a good way to cool them down and stop them from thermal throttling the pc. I have already cleaned away all of the dust inside my PC.

This is my motherboard: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 rev 4.0

Some pictures of the inside of my PC:

you need a good air cooler for that thats pushing air down on the vrms, like the noctua nhdh14

do you mean that i should change the liquid cooler to an air cooler?

yes thats what im saying.

However i would leave it for it is, it isnt worth the investment.
You are better off waiting for amd zen or saving up for intel.

Can you move the AIO rad into the case front or top locations?

You could swap over to a mid sized air cooler, moving either it or the current AIO into a later upgrade, or sell the AIO to a friend.

Whatever you decide, the issue is obviously that the VRM airflow is blocked by the current AIO rad, so you'll either have to move it or swap over to an air cooler.
