I haven't seen anyone else post a photo of this flex and I thought it was somewhat interesting

I don't like these kinds of flex ribbons. The fact these are meant to be fitted on the screw post between the board and the heatsink assembly does not help to change that. But it's good to know they're out there.

Out of curiousity, why do you dislike flex ribbons for this?

they'll move when you screw in the heatsink, if there's too much stress they can rip D point off motherboard.

The one included with instinct nx is much better designed, although I still prefer to connect everything with wires directly instead of using the ribbon cable

    But I'd have to say that Airheads are one of my favorites, especially when they've been warmed up a little in the hands.

    @Jayro, Agreed. I like them.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Skittles get into your teeth, they have the same boring flavour.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Only the colours tell your brain what flavour it should be, it triggers a sense response.

    @Jayro Starburst and airheads are good but the way starbursts are wrapped...

    Eat them along with the wrappers. Saves your finger nails lol.

    At this point I don't eat candy much and I may just cut it out entirely. Although starbursts, airheads, and skittles all taste good to me.
