V-RAM temperature
Using GPU-Z software, how I can check V-RAM temperature? In GPU-Z, there are GPU temperature, Hot Spot and Memory Temperature. Which one represents V-RAM temp?

OK. It is obvious, but I heard that Hot Spot is more representative number. It confuses me.
Nah, i think hotspot is the hottest spot on the die, memory is located on different spot.

Memory temp.

Unless you have an EVGA GPU that has those extra sensors (only brand I know of that offers it out of the box) then all you would see from other gpus is the gpu core temp. Meanwhile thats not all that gets hot, in fact the VRAM and VRMs often run hotter then the Core does in any given GPU, this is why some gpus might even have crashing issues after reaching or going beyond just 75*C on some of them, as the issue is that most likely the VRAM or VRMs are already way hotter and have reached to around 90*C or beyond.

The new version of GPU-Z has now three temperature sensors as I mentioned.

For many versions GPU-Z has been able to read from however many sensors are on a card.

Example I have 8 additional sensors compared to other GPUs, so of course GPU-Z has been able to read them for Years.
