Help monitoring VRM Temps on R9 280 (non-x)

I have overclocked my R9 280 (non-x) to 1100 core clock and 1400 memory clock. Core temps seem to be fine, never exceed 73C, but I can't seem to check my VRM temps.

Both HWmonitor and GPU-Z are not showing the information. Is this because the R9 280 (non-x) doesn't have a sensor on the VRM?? Should I attempt pushing my overclock further, or wait until I find a way to check VRM temps?

NOTE: Voltage is locked on this GPU, I can't change it in Afterburner. Is this why they have not put a sensor on the VRM? Since I won't be changing the voltage, I guess the VRM temps shouldn't change much?

Sorry, I took the GPU-Z screenshot after everything cooled down, but you can see the lack of a VRM sensor.

There is a scroll bar on the right side.
