GPU-Z will not tell you the VRM temp but HWinfo will.
The 970 Strix has two different temperatures that control fan speed. The GPU chip is allowed to go to 65 C and the WRM to 90 C (my bios version). The core_21 puts big stress on VRM. The different between an average core_18 and a bad core_21 is 60 W.........@BUCK NASTY I just got the ASUS GTX 270 Mini installed in my Kabini PC. Getting 180,000 PPD on a core 18.
It's always a balancing act with that PC. The Kabini is so weak, and my box (Cooler Master Elite 110) has such poor air flow that I don't dare overclock it. The GTX 970 is actually running cooler than the 960 I had in their before. I had to turn up the fan on the 960 to keep it below 70F, but not too much because it would cook the hard disk. The 970 is holding steady at 64F at totally stock settings. The real proof will come with a core 21.
