*** The Anti-Showoff Thread ***

Exchanged my 5 years old iPhone11 for a S25U with exchange value ~35K. (4K was reduced during inspection citing battery life is below 80%).
Even 31K is decent for the 64gigs model, which I bought for ~43K (including cashbacks)

My stock am4 fan was making lots of noise so I 3d printed a 80mm to 120mm adapter so now heatsink works with 120mm fans
Can you also 3D print for my AM5 stock fan the same way you did for your AM4 stock fan and I will pay you? Do you have a 3D printer? If you can 3D print for AM5 stock fan then PM me the details and price? Okay.

Yeah I have a 3d printer. If am5 fan mount is compatible with am4 then you can take mine for free. Mind you screwing to motherboard can be bit of a hassle

Dude you did what I couldn't do and only wished. I bought crap load of components in 2020 to build multi rail, battery backed power supply. And then life got in the way.

These component will see the trade section soon.

I will PM you once I get my new AM5 parts and install them and will see if my already existing AM4 stock fan will fit on AM5 chipset. Then you can send me. Okay. Thanks.
BTW what brand 120mm fan did you use to put on the top of your AM4 stock heatsink?

Man
Seems my 5600x has Wraith Stealth cooler and even Prism cooler also is compatible with AM5 chipset.
Before modding what stock cooler is yours?
This is my cooler.
