Indeed. 😀
I tried to adjust resolution of the photo to make "Tyan" logo between CPU slots semi-readable.

It's a Western Digital WDC93044 as far as I can see.

40MB IDE drive, there was an A version and an X version, the X version had 8-Bit IDE and was used in some Amstrad computers.

😊 Sorry for the late reply, I took a 10 hour nap. Very nice try tayyare but HighTreason takes the prize this time, as he gave the complete model number. It's the 40MB Western Digital WD93044 ( it's the "A" version, the only one I knew of). Congratulations!

??? Thought it was my turn? I wanted to be the one to knock the thread off it's rails. 🙁

Anyway, I'm taking my turn, here;

it is a Tyan Tiger 100 board.

here is a harder one, but should be doable:

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

This is a wild guess 😁

The CPU board in a Cobalt Qube?

It's the motherboard or CPU board in a Cobalt Qube3.

Well could it be a ZX Spectrum+ ? 😀
Dosnt look flat enough though.

I have very little knowledge about stuff that old.

Or perhaps the SCSI card is just named ZX for random reason 😀

This thread seems slow today so I will add yet another picture as the turn sequence seems totally messed up already.

I think this piece of hardware is retro but Im sure not everybody will agree.
I will give you one clue, this CPU cooler is between 11 and 12 years old.
Bah I just read the first post, year 2000 and older, see this one as a bonus while we wait for someone to figure out the pic HighTreason posted 😉

I'm confused of what's been discovered and what's not. Guys, refresh your queue 😁

Gigabyte 3DRocket - sans all of its mounting hardware and fan controller. I still want to know what HighTreason posted (so let it be "next" unless Skyscraper got it, in which case I'll have to find something), and admittedly I have no idea what it is. Searching for the product ID silked on it returns a National Instruments SCSI card (hey, if HT can use FCC IDs to look stuff up, why can't I do the same thing on his picture? 🤣 ), which may or may not be associated with a Sinclair ZX.

You are correct!

I have all the mounting hardware and the fan controller, the only thing missing is the Molex adapter but the header on the cooler is a "small Molex" so its not a huge issue.
I agree! The one that identifies High Treasons image should post the next one as this was both out of sequence and not according to the rules 😀 At least we bump the thread!

This is kind of a tangent: the "small Molex" is actually not a Molex, it's a Berg; technically a 4 pin polarized connector (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berg_connector), and the 3DRocket can run with only that connected (it will run at full RPMs though). The whole reason for the external fan controller is so the fan can be variable RPM without the LEDs blinking or dimming. In theory you could just disconnect the fan from the circuit-board on the top of it and plug that straight into your motherboard or whatever else, which would turn the LEDs off and let the system control the RPMs. I never got around to trying that on mine while it still worked though.
