I recently added a MCW82 to my loop.. but I'm a little nervous about my VRMs and vRAM. I've never even seen my GPU hit 40C.. which is a huge improvement over the stock cooler where it was regularly at ~65C. The only issue I've found is that often times while I'm playing BFBC2, the game gets choppy for a quick second.. which could really be just about anything. I don't really remember that happening before I added my video card to my loop.. but honestly I didn't really pay attention to it either. I attached the vram sinks with the thermal paste that came with the kit (used only a small amount.. figured I'd use the same strategy as I do for applying thermal paste to a CPU), and the air temp around my ram sinks is usually in the 22-27C range.
It could really be a million things that could cause this (including just using an out dated video card.. 9800gtx+).. but I was curious if anyone else has ever had any trouble with the vram/vrms causing stability issues with a universal gpu block or if my time would be better spent looking into other possible causes. Thanks in advance,
