Also, 'i7 7xx' my brother in christ that's a 1156 CPU, there is also no i7 7xx, you're thinking of the i5's. That, or the AI hallucinating a X3580 which doesn't even exist.
Block came in earlier this week. Missing half of the memory pads and all screws, outstanding /s
Bashed something together with slightly too thick pads (1mm instead of 0.5mm) and I had M3 screws enough as-is so the BRR is rebuilt into the Define 7 XL I had. But it's 30C plus outside so I sure as...
I have bought... this:

Finally a block for the 980 Ti Strix I bought last May :cool:
The Better Retro Rig has been torn down until further notice (read: until I sell off that P55 board so I can reuse said loop/D7 for the BRR)
Not that I ever used it to begin with. A recurring issue I have with shit I do: building/acquiring it is more fun than actually using it.
Christ, I told myself no more Precisions... and guess what I ended up with: a dead M4800. Ironically a machine I have never owned before.
Gave CPU error, swapped CPU, boots but then gives a MCE BSoD so I suspect a dead board. Meh, unless I can find a dirt cheap M4800 with a ****ed GPU I'm not...
and received. Drivers obviously weren't in Windows itself but after getting them from Intel's site, plug 'n play. I used a 10Gtek DAC cable to a ASUS BE88U without issue.
Someone in my city listed a 980 Ti Strix with ****ered fans (I suspect it's ex-mining) for €40 and I bought it lol. Deshrouded the card, repasted it, and now it does 1480/2025.
Surprisingly clean under the heatsink though.
