Intel 6800K Capacitor Layout- Amazing

[cnerde]

Look at the difference between most recent high end Intel CPUs and the 6800k - someone at Intel spent the time to make the layout on the back beautiful. This is Steve Jobs (OCD level / envisioning) esque design and layout. Look at those rows of capacitors, neat symmetrical design. 
This is what you pay for going with "X" level CPUs, even the low end 6 core model is beautiful. Whoever is lead the development on these chips is my favorite person right now.. 

Yeah, weird and random.. But apparently I look at electronic design like Steve Jobs did. -Reference to him asking the engineers to redesign a motherboard because it looked inelegant, and when asked "who's going to see it anyway", he answered, "I am".

Included are pictures of Intel CPUs, look at the capacitor layout. Some normal i7s, the 6800k, and a couple Xeons (which look ok) The 5820k looked horrible, so there's a new (AWEOMSE) team member. 
(In order: 6800k, i7s, different stepping i7s, 5820k (EW!) and 6800k, and a couple xeons below that.

Cos it matters so much when we look at it once then put it in the socket lol

Personally I only care about how it performs, it's a CPU after all, it's not on display.

Yeah the CPU I don't care as much about but the GPU and mobo should look semi-decent together even if you don't have a window on your case.

It's good that it seems like they took time and care into making the layout of them. They have a nice attention to detail.

My friend bought a 6800K!
