This is really different. Anyone thinking of a Threadripper CPU may want to watch.

Holly processor batman, that's some mounting !!!
You can preorder some nicely made ones AMD Ryzen Threadripper

Some nice prices too.

That TR4 socket is quite interesting.

I'm just curious of how many motherboards are going to be ruined by that installation procedure.

Thanks Steve, for bring it to our attention, it was an interesting video.
Once that puppy is mounted, it ain't goin' no where!
My comment to Paul:


It would be nice to see some more tutorial vids, like this from him.

By the way the PCB's for Threadripper are sturdier & thicker, so one needs to really try, to bust them.
