cooling the cpu voltage regulator

Hi

Currently specking a PC using an H100i in a bitfinix ronin in order to overclock what i am wondering about is, do I have to worry about airflow over the voltage regulator's heatsinks? or will there just be enough regardless

No need to worry on most set ups. Sort of depends on the chip and motherboard.

vregs are designed to handle more temperature than chips however you will benefit from keeping them cooler. something like a SpotCool will be perfectly sufficient.
