Have the following heatsinks, and I'd like to place them on the VRM's of the 780Ti board.

Only problem is, I'm not sure which exactly are the VRM.

Can someone please indicate where the VRM's are on this board.

I installed the kraken, but will now be remounting it due to worry of VRM temperature.

dont just dont..... you need to strip off your cooler and... no just NO

 

those are for the RAM modules on the back side of the gpu, if there is no backplate to cool those then you use those

He said he was suing a kraken, therefor he would have already removed the cooler

They're really for anything that produces heat; I have a few myself that I use to cool my raspberry pi
