Yup. Money loves to find ways to be spent, be it food, tech, or fixing vehicles and stuff. I think money sometimes has a mind of its own :ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

Crap, some of it just ran out of my pocket toward that prostitute! My bad... Those little bastards....

i5 6600k and GTX 1070 but I play 1600-900. 1440p BABY!

Still, don't put too much faith in my buying decisions. xD

Perhaps because in many companies you won't be able to get a order for "scythe", "noctua", etc past the procurement department. But if it says Intel all's fine and dandy. Old habits don't die easy. The phrase "Nobody ever got fired for buying intel" came about for a reason.

Don't get why Intel hasn't changed their stock cooler design in decades... all that changes is the height of the heatsink lol
