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 does really well here, sitting with the second lowest idle we’ve seen yet, and maxing at just 58.5c, it’s pretty safe to touch the VRM when they’re under load. There’s no doubt that thermals are not going to be an issue here, so you can relax when you’re pushing the CPU hard rendering videos all day.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
