Nice, dust shields are a pain to clean.
How do you like the performance upgrade? I went from a i7 2600k to a Ryzen 5 3600 I noticed a massive improvement in compiling software under Gentoo  ;D

For gaming it's real nice. I find the desktop to be not much faster than before but I can see and like the more power I have now for sure. In games I went from 10fps to sometimes 200 fps and everywhere in between, lol.
