Took apart the loop tonight, half-arse cleaned it. Panels off the case, done to just frame. Reason it looks weird. (Ignore goofy towel for water)
I still don't know about this MOBO. Will finish the build tomorrow when my block arrives.
6850k and MOBO for sale. Idk who the fckk would buy that unless for "lab" use.

Looks like the asus strix x570 gaming... since it says it right in that last pic

Ah... I see the portion of the Strix now
I guess theres only 1 X570-F model too. I'm so out of touch with components now.
EDIT: If I remember correctly, the Strix X470 Gaming version for 2nd gen Ryzen, had one of the best VRM solutions for X470.

The only reason I might use the other MOBO is because of the dual LAN. One of them being that fake 2.5GBe, makes it perfect for a direct link to my FreeNAS box. I plan on putting my whole Steam Library on my NAS once I put in a 10GBe NIC.
Edt: what mobos, if any, have native 10GBe?

I think I saw one of Wendells vids with gamersnexus they had a stupid expensive server board with one
You got 10gb switch in your house?
Edit: Nvm I see you'd do a direct link

Oh no, no need for now.
But, I do want to put a 10GbE in the NAS. Manly for better performance on my games stored on the NAS. I would do direct to NAS like I do now between my MAIN PC and FreeNAS box. But correctly my MOBO (old Mobo) had 2 LANs. This one only has one, reason why I want to maybe switch the Strix MOBO out for the Aorus Master MOBO with dual nic, one of the nics being a RealTek 2.5GbE NIC and other an Intel 211 1GbE.
I remember reading this a few months or even years back, so always wanted to go this route once I upgraded to faster than 1GB NIC on the gaming PC.

Searching for my old cpu blocks from past builds to compare how shtty EKWB have become relative to past products, found 2 unused L9i. I know one is a "newer" version which can fit AM3, idk if they can fit AM4. If you are local you can test one out if you find they work on AM4.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm a few states away in AZ
Definitely would hit you up if I was in Louisiana though.

Finished loop last night, Strix Mobo is okay.
Switching out for the aorus master.

The GF said she "liked the RGB" on my new MOBO.
Was filled with disappointment then uncontrollable rage.

I just realized I haven't changed the water in my custom loop in almost 3 years.

I didn't change the water in my loop for over a year. Had rust in the loop I believe from fittings, can't be my blocks, I just buy nickel.
How are Dem fishes?
