These are the pins on the bottom of an AMD A10-7850K APU. I boarder the top corners of this image with two more APUs. Using the largest aperture my 50mm lens offered allowed me to get a real shallow depth of field and to extenuate the green and pink chromatic aberration produced my my prime lens.

A new Rosewill CPU cooler installed in the computer. It works fairly well, and even the fan has the nifty 4-pin PWM connector. The bargain basement ECS board will sure hurt my street cred, but it works.

I cleaned out my custom built PC from a few years ago and I always wanted to capture the CPU socket on my Motherboard.

I enjoy the technical process of building, customizing and maintaining PC's. I've built around 10-15 personal PC's over the years for myself and friends.

The lengths I'll go to to get an impressive picture into a letters column.

(Note that my commitment to making an impressive fake screenshot did not extend to giving each of the "CPUs" its own different activity graph. I was also entertained to read about AMD's upcoming 16-core Opterons; a four-socket board with those in it would be a legitimate, generally-compatible-x86, 64-core server!)

A different view of yesterdays CPU - using a tripod was a big help.

Nothing like a good old AMD 8085. This also provides a clue to the machine's vintage.

Below it in the 16-pin DIP sockets are rows of flip-flops and other 74-series logic components.
