Actually, I like the fact that the CPU is soldered on. I've no intention of upgrading CPU, and would like to just build the system, then leave it as is until it's obsolete. Is the heatsink also soldered? I guess that would get better thermal performance... though I would have like to choose my own.


45W... how can that outperform something like a 7700k? Or does it outperform only for graphics applications, but not non-GPU needing application?
