~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

I may be wrong ~~but didn't LMG put it in their tormach to shave off THERMAL MASS such that the block didn't interfere with RAM?~~
~~They knowingly destroyed a prototype in the video. Off course Billet has to cut their losses with this shit.~~
Edit: I was wrong. See comment below. That happens when you watch a video on second screen :)
I just rewatched to see (wanted a refresher on just how badly they trashed Billet): they machined down the heatsink from the motherboard to make clearance to the Billet Labs block. They didn't modify the block itself.
Thank you. Thats what I get when I watch videos on a second screen :)
