I just purchased the components for several new computers for work and I knew I had to do something with one or more of the new processors. After lots of shots of different angles and lighting, this was my favorite. Of course that means that it will probably average in the high 4's.

That is sweet. Not getting the corner hurts my rating.

why is it chopped off on the bottom?

Certainly Pretty Unique - 6

I don't like the fact that the cpu is cut off where it is. It seems uninteresting to me. I do like the lighting and it certainly meets the challenge so above average.

Interesting pic. Cutting the corner off is distracting. Not sure CPU is an acromym... probably just initials.
