    Most of my PC work i could do just fine on a small PC, and even on a very low specced small PC if need be
    TBH my Threadripper system are wayyyyyyy overkill.


    In it to win it

    It's nice, but pity that it's an old gen chipset with support only for Skylake and Kaby Lake.

    Yeah, but, it's free if you win..
    Looking at it, tbh its a good replacement for a Gen8 Microserver if you're that way inclined, 4 3.5" drive bays, pair of M2 headers, upto 64Gb RAM, or lose one of the 3.5 for a pair of 2.5"'s...

    Got me thinking now, damn it..
