Progress marches on, and what was once flagship is now in an affordable combo that could be yours.

Bundle includes:

• A Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon AC board with original box and plenty of original accessories
• A delidded i7-8700K with liquid metal applied and very slightly sanded/lapped IHS for optimal temperatures

Please note the board's 90° USB 3.0 header's pins were previously bent and an effort was made to straighten them out, so please take caution plugging anything into this header - there is an additional USB 3.0 header that emerged unscathed. The JRAINBOW1 header at the bottom right of the board also appears to be missing a pin entirely.

The liquid metal may eventually require replacement under the CPU IHS - this is at your risk.

Those caveats aside, this is solid price to performance in a world where things cost far more than they should.
