Bit ironic that the image is generative AI slop

… or is it?

    I am quite positive that it is AI gen.

    • RGB light (can be edit in)
    • RAM stick contact pins look too dense to be real
    • Thin CPU fan with big hub pointing down while cooler fin lay horizontal
    • Weirdly large distance between CPU and RAM socket

    Oh, definitely. I was questioning whether or not the irony was actually deliberate, illustrating the end result of the fake money ouroboros

    All kinds of weird going on with how the right hand is “holding” that module (while pinching another one behind it?)

    Memory module is symmetrical.

    No motherboard I’ve ever seen would have DIMM slots parallel to PCI slots, let alone that far from the CPU socket

    Have a look at what would normally be the 24-Pin ATX connector - fewer pins, which is not unheard of in some proprietary cases, but the connector itself looks weird and garbled.

    Aren't the ram slots also straight up placed wrong in the motherboard? I have never seen ram on a diagonal from the CPU before, or running parallel to the pcie slots, even on weird prebuilts.
