CPU & VRM Temperatures

The AMD Ryzen 7000 & Ryzen 8000G processors are very different from one another. The Ryzen 7000 CPUs utilize a chiplet design with either 1 or 2 CCDs and a single IO die while the Ryzen 8000G APU family comes in a monolithic design with just one chip on the PCB. As such, the cooling for the chips is very different with the Ryzen 7000 CPUs being a tricky one since you have to keep all three dies in check based on their thermal characteristics. The thermal testing was carried out with the Corsair H1150i AIO liquid cooler:
