Fans goes crazy and you can feel the high temps

I have a rMBP 15 2015, 16GB, 512GB, r9 m370x 2GB, i7 and since day one I never been able to charge my phone on it and Apple never gives a..

As soon as I power on my system the fans goes crazy and you can feel the high temps coming from under the display. I think it’s a VRM problem, but I’m unable to find a source to buy new ones and try replacing them, also tried all possible options via software.

If anyone have any light for me I would be very grateful

To clarify the VRM's are strictly for the CPU & GPU chips power control. Given your symptoms I don't see that as the issue.

I would install this great app TG Pro so you can effectively monitor what is getting hot. Take a snapshot of the apps main window one at idle and a second with the with iPhone connected. Make sure you get all of the sensors, you'll need to adjust the windows size to get all of them to show up in one snapshot.

Also let’s also check your battery, install this gem of an app! CoconutBattery take a snapshot of the apps main window and post it here for us to see Adding images to an existing question

Just wanted to clarify, do the fans kick on high at the Login Window or only once you get logged in and get to your Desktop?

What if you Option boot to EFI and let it sit there, do the fans kick on high then?

At the login screen the fans are already spinning like crazy, after I log in the app tg pro popped up saying its 98º. Also tried boot to EFI and the fans are definitely blowing, not at max speed, but fast enough to feel the air

Got ya, I think Dan's suggestion of putting TG Pro on there sounds like best option for now so you can see if maybe a sensor is bad. If a sensor is bad the fans are gonna run on high no matter what so this seems like next logical step.
