    heh im just trying to imagine how much money and resources were spent testing this chip, to keep something that hot for that long :O

    unless the just kept it nailed to the end of one of those oxy-thingy torches
    Core i7 7700K| ASUS Z270F | 16Gb DDR4 | GTX1080Ti | Watercooled CPU+GPU | 512GB 950Pro
    So why is it customary to post specs in sigs anyway?
