Someone not in the hobby asked me what all these fittings cost.  I refused to answer.
 

Honestly?  For the last 4 gens, until the next xx80ti comes out.  980ti>1080ti>2080ti>3080ti.  Just got the 3080ti this week.

We in there...
 

3080 TI FTW3 will be here Monday.  EKWB Block and backplate will be here Wednesday.
 
Out with the old, in with the new...

It's been a good one.

Swapped to the 9900k from my 7820x.  This was run with my new daily driver settings.  Proven 100% stable and <90c in 12hrs Prime95 Blend (no AVX), 1hr Prime95 Small fft (no AVX), 1hr Prime95 Blend (w/ AVX), 4hr OCCT (w/ AVX), 2hr RealBench (w/ AVX), 1hr Aida64 (w/AVX) 1hr Karhu RAM Test.  The chip was sold as a binned 5.1Ghz chip, and it has proven to be so.  I bought it dellided with a copper IHS...stole it for $565.
 
5.1Ghz at 1.320v
0 AVX offset
Cache x47
16gb 4200 17-17-17-37
 

 
Not bad at all for the new general use default settings.  I'll start playing with 5.2 and 5.3 this weekend...  ?

Let's skip to the good part.  When can I order my 3080ti and who wants to buy my 2080ti FTW3 Hydro Copper???

Agree *throws FX 8350 at the wall*

You could bounce that thing off the thermal limit for years at the stock clocks.  Chips are not as fragile as many want to believe. 

Link to legacy list is there, now with a sentence that tells Intel buyers to go there

Congrats on the board.  It is awesome.  I am probably going to be putting mine back into use when the 10-series chips are available. 

Glad I held onto my EVGA x299 Dark board.

Signed a contract for my first house today.

Some of the expectations were so ridiculous.  People must have thought AMD had some physics defying magic up their sleave.
