:lmao: The Mobo isn't screwed down though. Nor a video board(Unless its on the mobo but I don't see it.

 

exactly what i was going to point out...

total fake.

 

lol, before i even read the quotes, i'm lookin at the pic like, wft is wrong w/ the board???? I don't see the cpu heatsink / fan! That shit'll burn up!

 

No slot for the punch cards???

 

Intel heatsinks use a push pin design and can be locked into any hole if the pins align and I think they are probably pretty close to 80mm.

 

The thermal paste looks like its evenly spread, so I'd assume there was a heatsink on their previously. I don't see any mounting brackets or anything, so it could possible be a different type of heatsink.

 

:rofl:

 

yes please

 

Yea, that heatsink was mounted on the CPU at one point.

I've installed several of those heatsinks on Intel cpus. The mounting clips are on the heatsink, the motherboard just has 4 holes. They just push into the holes around the cpu. The last one you do is always really hard. I'd say you 'almost' have to bend the motherboard to get it to go in, but that'd be a lie. You DO have to bend the motherboard to get them to latch. Crappy design on Intel's part.

Stock intel heatsinks use a '3 strips of thermal paste inside a sort of circular' setup on the bottom of the heatsinks. The heat and pressure spread it evenly.... like has been done on the CPU in the OP.

Fake? Possible. True? Possible.

But the CPU did have a heatsink on it for at least some time, because that thermal paste is pretty good and even.

 

i want that thing on the left side. whatever it is.
