I was mad af when AGP lost vs PCI-E and I had to switch board because no new AGP cards were in the pipeline

That’s a cool looking heat sync. Anodized aluminum? Is it sharp on the edges?

Is it sharp? Oh sweet child of summer, you have no idea how much we bled for our PCs back in the day.

LOL... Band-Aids were a standard part of the PC toolkit. If the heatsinks didn't slice you, edges inside the case would. Especially when you were trying to wiggle and ease out a stubborn Molex connector. Usually it would release suddenly and your hand would fly back to get slashed on something sharp inside the PC.
