Sexy Hardware Close-Up Pic Clubhouse.

Still waiting on the Nikon...
However, installed a monoblock on my ASUS Strix motherboard, so cell phone pic it is.

Very nice!, how are the temps?, what are you cooling?.

These beauties got here today, scored them on Ebay for $299.99. Little dirty and scruffed, but guy said it worked, now to clean it and find a cooler to verify!

Cooling a i9 7980XE. Running BOINC at 100% on all cores/threads, temps are similar to what they were with the EK Supremacy Elite 2011 v3 I was using. But VRM temps are down from almost 90c (and higher) to around 57c. CPU temps are around 50c with the CPU set at 3.4GHz on all cores. I was having issues with the system becoming unresponsive and so I switched out the EVGA 650 with my trusty 'ol Corsair 1200AX and replaced the water block with this monoblock.
I wanted to go with rigid tubing; however, I have so much water cooling crap for soft tubing and do not want to spend more money. I do like the rigid tubing looks.

A little bit dated:

And a really old intel product:

It´s an UV-EPROM with 128k . Two-line control and already JEDEC-approved.
Not 100% sure about it´s real age, but the year 1982 is stamped on there.

That is a beautiful thing, regardless of age.

Today it was finally time to take apart my FX-Rig. Hadn´t turned it on for weeks and it just set there as a strange 3rd system as back-up for the back-up. Mainly just because there are 5 years of awesome memories connected to this one and looking at the power on time of the drive it was nearly 40% of those 5 years up and running.
Now I´ll sell that TA970XE board, the 16GB DDR3 and the cooler as a combo, but I have to keep the CPU.

It will join my trusted and still working Athlon 64 X2 6000+, which was my first own PC and served me well for more then 7 years. Oh the nostalgia hits hard. I only cried a little bit tho, I´m strong.

And in case some of you didn't know, the Southbridge heatsink actually has provision for this - ASUS Maximus VIII Ranger:
