Alright I got one more before I finish my coffee and hit the road again.
Not old, but it instills nostalgia for me. I'm a youngin', and despite starting on a PII 333 system I built my first rig on an Athlon 64 X2 4200+. Not long after that the Phenom launched, then the Phenom II and AM3. I remember seeing the TWKR hit headlines, then hit the OC leaderboards. The exclusivity of it started the wheels turning and I spent ages trying to get one. I had to have one of these magic chips, even if there were only 100 of them. I settled with a 960T but finally got ahold of this particular TWKR in 2013 when it popped up on eBay. It's lived a full life, and hardly OCs much at all anymore above ambient, but it's still a massive staple of my collection.
Story time over, time to hit the road.
