3 Where is the temperature sensor component located exactly?
gtx 1070 ROG Strix
Had this card for years and still works great. Recently started doing this thing where it shows it reaching temperatures as high as 90c at idle. Logically the first thing that comes to mind is that it needs new thermal paste or pads etc. I guarantee this is not the case. The card is still cool to the touch. I confirmed this after running it till it reached that temp then turning off and removing the card. I am nearly certain it has a bad thermal sensor, which is why I would like to know where they are so I can buy and solder new ones. All help is appreciated thanks!
Es esta una buena pregunta?

I took apart the card today and found a component with poor contact with the board. Fixed that, and Replaced the thermal paste and pads just in case. It's working great again! Idle temps are at an average of 35c and it's running great while gaming hasn't got past 50c. It can even handle a stable overclock.
