Can anyone tell me where the vrm's are located on B450M steel legend. 

I would like to add a small fan for extra cooling.

Circled in red.

Just point a fan at those VRM heatsinks and you'll be golden.

(obviously the real VRMs are under the silver heatsinks)

Splendid, I had an idea but wanted it confirming. 

Have the Noctua NH U14s but i would like to put a small fan pointed down at those too. 

Case airflow is good, 2 intake/2 exhaust (1 rear 1 top above the heatsink and vrm) 

Also set the U14S fan as low down as I could to blow some air across. 

In a meshify c mini. 

Just want to be sure.

Case airflow should be fine, unless you've paired it with one of the 8 core CPU's.

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!

I was planning on using a small noctua fan and aiming it dowm between the elbow gap between the two heatsink. 

Would that be OK?
