ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-A Gaming-WiFi II Motherboard Review

The other key areas that are worth focussing on though comes down to VRM temperatures, which can differ wildly depending on the amount, the capacity of the current that can pass through them, and of course how the various heatsinks handle that power, which in turn, creates heat.
VRM Temperatures
The VRM configuration on this motherboard is pretty fantastic, but as big as the heatsinks look, they don’t have as much metal as some of the competition and there’s no heatpipe bridging the two, so the top line did give us a higher peak temperature that the left side, hitting 57.6c. However, is that a temperature to be concerned about? Absolutely not, this motherboard does a great job here.
