Bought these new old stock CD-ROMs. Unfortunately, I found out the TEAC has the silver panel afterward.

Now you have an excuse to buy a Lian Li case.

Got the ECS Photon KV2 Extreme repaired and cleaned. X2 4800+ was included for pretty cheap, another win in the CPU lottery. 😀

Look at this little disco ball in action.

Wow, what a crazy board! Lots of questionable early-2000s marketing stuff silk screened on there! Like, what is Dual Channel DDR 999 DIMM? Or PCI Extreme?

All the colorful board lighting is impressive too. This has to be one of the first motherboards with purely cosmetic lighting built in. I have honestly never seen anything like it from that time period.

Such a cool board. And with a 4800+ too! Nice find!
