Asus 1080ti Turbo

[steve2563]

Hello everyone, 

Looking for some tips on cooling the VRM area of a 1080ti Turbo with Accelero Xtreme III. 

Attached a picture of the area and the heatsink, because I don't know if these can be "bridged" with the aluminium heatsinks, because some capacitors are in between them. The little heatsinks hang out too, touching the caps. 

 

Thanks, 

Steve

i believe they are inductors not capacitors. Don't let them touch the leads and you will be fine on that front

To be safe you can use electrical tape to cover the exposed and risky sides.
