VRM temperatures on motherboards are important because they affect the stability and performance of the CPU, especially when overclocking. VRMs are responsible for regulating the voltage that goes from the PSU to the CPU, which needs to be clean and consistent. High VRM temperatures can cause voltage fluctuations, CPU throttling, or even damage to the motherboard components.
Despite being a smaller mATX motherboard, and having those blocky VRM heatsinks, cooling isn’t an issue, with the VRM hitting just 49.9 at its hottest spot after one hour of intensive CPU load. Clearly, heat is never going to be a problem here, and while you have to factor in that the VRM configuration isn’t the most extreme on these charts so they use less power and generate less heat anyway, the temperatures are still some of the best I’ve seen.
