hey guys so i just modded my corsair h70 to use on my g10 bracket, but the vrm fan is on the opposite side of the vrm's. so the fan is actually cooling nothing, maybe the vrams slightly, any idea how i can get the vrms cooled?

You could always put on some aluminum heatsinks

They usually get the job done on the ambient airflow of your case, but the flow from the fan should help too!

 

Keep in mind that vrms are rated to 125C usually, so they are designed to get toasty anyway.

Good airflow in the case would be enough, so people say. Put heat sinks on my vram, didn't do anything for the vrm's though.
