Just wanted to do a final crescendo to EVGA, felt like a fitting time with the way the PC hobby has become as of late....3080 hydro copper, X570 FTW and 1000w P2 in a fractal meshify 2, cooled by a 360x60mm rad with super flower megacools, they keep the 3900X and 3080Ti in check just fine.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Selling off this combo I just pulled from a system, its in great working order and a few of the parts are effectively new with only being powered up in this motherboard (CPU/RAM)

So I decided to build the ultimate “late 2009 / early 2010” enthusiast PC — basically the kind of absurd dream machine young me would have stared at on Newegg for hours back when Windows 7 launched. Ironically the HAF 932 case is a "family heir loom" if you will from that time, my brother that got me into PCs bought it back when the core i series launched (08-09), he gave it to me in the mid 2010s and I rocked it for about 4-5 years giving it a paint job in the mean time, then it served as my "test platform" as I started my small PC business. This whole idea started as a homage build to EVGA and that golden era of PC hardware. EVGA X58 3x SLI motherboard, EVGA 1300w G2 PSU, triple EVGA GTX 260 Core 216 cards in SLI, Crucial Ballistix Tracer triple channel ram. Totally impractical by modern standards, but peak enthusiast that I could only dream of on my core 2 E6600 and 9800 gtx+ back then.
So I was doing the arduous task of redoing all the thermal paste, and I mean all of it. Pulling the north and south heat sinks off the mobo, 3 cards ect... I pulled the Zalman CPU cooler to redo the thermal paste and immediately noticed something weird, the IHS was completely blank. No markings. No laser etching. Nothing. At first I thought someone had lapped the CPU and sanded the markings off. Honestly didn’t think much of it beyond “huh, that’s odd.” Then I booted the system. Turns out the chip is a Intel i7-995X.
Not a 990X. A 995X.
After digging around, apparently the 995X was an unreleased / extremely rare Gulftown chip that never actually made it to retail. From what I can tell it is basically an engineering/sample or a vendor sample halo CPU that almost nobody has ever seen in the wild running at a full 3.7Ghz 6c12T.
So what started as a fun nostalgic Windows 7-era EVGA tribute build accidentally turned into one of the weirdest hardware finds I’ve ever had. Its still missing the UV fans and cold cathodes but those will be on the way soon.
Now I’m sitting here running benchmarks on what is essentially a time capsule from peak enthusiast PC culture and honestly it feels awesome.
TL;DR: Built a late-2009/Windows 7-era EVGA homage PC with an EVGA X58 board and triple EVGA GTX 260 Core 216's in SLI and found a super rare unreleased Intel i7-995X in the mobo
So I was putting together a "window 7 launch" (2009) PC that doubles as my first EVGA homage build and as I pulled the zalman cooler off this old EVGA x58 to repaste I noticed that the IHS of the CPU was blank, my first thought was that the previous owner had lapped it, anyways after I got to bios the CPU was reporting as a i7-995x, knowing i7-9xx is a bit more modern then I had hoped I started to look into the performance of said chip when I quickly realized that this CPU was never launched and was intended to be the final CPU of X58 that never was. I can hardly find any info on it. So what do I do with it now?
hello ole HWswap, got some ram Im looking to sell today
Model
