May I asked how you determined that the VRM's were overheating?

I was on the brink of getting a G12 for my RTX2080 based off this video where he specifically measures VRM temps on a 2080Ti.
 
The VRM’s are packed around the CPU dye and on both side of it. The G12 only cools the one row of VRMs and memory unit, but not the other.

So, half of the memory chips and VRMs jist dont get sufficient airflow to cool down.

I also watched that video and made my decision on it, but on redit, the ppl that actually tried, all complained that the G12 just doesnt cut it.

The X52 cooled my Core down lekker. It idles at 20°c and never goes above 40°c under load. But, Those VRM’s man...
