I'm keeping that other 5900X. I've got two Gigabyte B550 Aorus-P mATX boards (2.5GbE LAN), two or three sets of DDR4-3200 4x16GB (64GB) RAM, some Team Group Cardea Gen4 512GB NVMe drives, along with some EVGA SuperNova G+ 80Plus Gold 850W PSUs, and a pair of Rosewill 4-fan RGB Mesh cases, and some DeepCool AK400 220W TDP tower coolers too.
My hope is to re-gain the stability that I've lost (my current 5900X crashes and reboots after 3 min of mining or primegrid, think my CLC AIO is shot, although the RPMs still show, but it doesn't make noise any more. Going with AIR this time.)
And then, once I have some stable 5900X rigs with 64GB of RAM, I plan on digging in to some PrimeGrid and WCG, that I've neglected for so long.
And, depending on how things go with ETH PoS in Sept., I may be able to turn my GPUs back to DC, finally, after a long hiatus into the "dark side" - mining.
