So this is a bare R9 290/x now my VRM temp 1 is hitting 95c-100c so need to fix it but VRM 2 is fine so need to know which one is which!
 
I think the hottest vrm is the one on its own up near the display ports (#1)

and #2 is the long line of vrm's at the back of the card
 
As other have said, VRM1 is the line just to the right of the core looking at the picture, i recently fitted a Morpheus cooler to my 290X and while temps on the core and Vrm2 were fantastic, Vrm1 was much hotter than the stock cooler.
