tistou77 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 helloIt would be better to put the icon of the "CPU VRM" for the temperature of the VRM.The battery icon does not seem appropriateIt's just for design, nothing important to use Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 The icon in question isn't actually a battery icon, but more a generic power icon. It shows the battery in the background and a power plug in front of it. I admit, it's not the perfect icon to represent power delivery, power supply or a VRM, but there're other kind of VRMs that may or may not be directly related to the CPU, that's why we use a more generic power icon.

tistou77 Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 Thank you for your answerAnd these icons will not be good? For the temperature of the cores and Vcore is the same icons, so for VRM, it could be the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capture.PNG For the temperature of the cores and Vcore is the same icons, so for VRM, it could be the same Our slight concern is the motherboard-integrated VRMs are not really inside the CPU package or even right next to the CPU socket in a strict sense. So using the CPU icon may not be closer to the truth than using the current icon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tistou77 Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 Ok thank you for your answerFor the VRM temperature, the sensor is directly on the VRM I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 For the VRM temperature, the sensor is directly on the VRM I guess It depends on the motherboard PCB layout. But it's a safe assumption that the temperature diode measuring VRM temperature is placed close enough to the VRM circuitry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
