Check if B760I AORUS PRO vrm fits your 14700kf engine.
Hello, I’m considering the B760I AORUS PRO DDR5 model with an 8+1+1 VRM setup. Since I mainly play in 4K and don’t overclock the CPU, will this setup be sufficient for the 14700K? Also, you mentioned it’s a mini ITX board—thanks!
With sufficient airflow it should work fine, though it will be close to the limit. Mini-ITX doesn't pair well with 13th and 14th generation processors mainly because of the heat they generate. When you factor in the cooling needs of those CPUs, an mATX case will likely be necessary.
High-temp problems arise with 240mm AIOs. Those chips handle power demands extremely well and can easily push the VRM to its limit. For stable performance, consider a 360mm AIO if you want consistent cooling.
If you opt for a mid-tower instead of a mini ITX, you likely won't need a 360mm replacement for your 240mm.
