VRM heatsinks on Gigabyte AX370 Gaming K7 enough with CLC?

[jgbathlon_guy]

Hey guys,

I'm running a Ryzen 1600 and want to add a CLC I already have, Thermaltake Water 3.0 240mm, with a wicked OC. Great cooler btw. Since the stock cooler will be removed, along with the downdraft air flow, will the VRMs be cooled enough? The heatsinks don't look beefy enough? In the event it won't be enough, will improved case air flow remedy the problem? I feel the VRMs need the direct air flow of the downdraft stock cooler though.

Thanks!

Any x370/470 MB would have good enough VRM to OC 1600 to it's highest degree.
