Photos can be deceiving, but it looks very clean and new in the photos. Hopefully it is accurate. The seller is a middle-aged woman (her photo is on her profile) with lots of positive feedback. This is not the type of item she normally sells, so I am hoping this came from her own HTPC and the statement is accurate rather than something she bought cheap to resell and a sales pitch that she invented.

 

Middle aged woman? That is unusual for an HTPC!

But it could be something harmless and she is selling it for a friend of family.

yup also got newer gen cables on my watchlist for my TX-1600 PSU.

 

currently prepping my ebay auction for the 4090, very curious to see how the 12-pin socket held up, havent really checked it recently.....what could go wrong running it with a 1kW vbios as daily amirite 😛 😄 

 

I'll end up with one eventually for my MSI 1300AI_SuperDuper_Terminator_Matrix edition (we all know the naming is headed that way), but I'll run the tentacles for a bit at first.

You never know when you will be next on the melting list. But some  of the AIB partners have done the same what Galax did 2 years ago for the HOP. Asus followed up with the Matrix later. A chip to stop the melting. This should be the minimum with the stupid tiny power connector for <nvidia graphics.

 

Maybe stupid. But it is what it is. Bling bling, and not cheap but choices here home is low for faster 48GB stics. I never opted for Intel's failure (Arrow Lake) so I invest in old Raptor Lake. Higher speed memory means people will buy it in the used market when I move on (when, I don't know). I can just turn the RGB to all white. I wanted 2 x 24 GB Teamgroup T-Force Xtreem 8200 but as usual these have never been a choice here home. I have the nickel plated EK-Quantum Velocity² so it would fit well.  https://www.proshop.no/RAM/GSkill-Trident-Z5-Royal-DDR5-8400-48GB-CL40-Dual-Channel-2-pcs-Intel-XMP-Soelv-med-RGB/3275216
