Z370 auros vrm temps while gameing

[ntibbs]

I’m Upgrading my computer to an 8600 K and I’m considering the auros ultra/gaming 5. I do hope to be able to overclock to 4.8 or 5 GHz but I’ve seen that the VRM temperatures can get quite hot on these boards. If I will be using the computer mainly just for gaming And occasional streaming, will my VRM temperatures see the increase that some other people are seeing?

Depends strictly on CPU voltage you need to achieve stable 4.8-5. If you need to up the voltage, VRM will get hotter. Predicting exact temps you'll get is impossible however.

Overclocked yes the Vram heats up.
I would consider this board.
