Tom's H5C1 build

Excited to announce first progress on my H5C1 build. While I'm waiting for the German customs to clear the latest shipment from exxos (some missing chips and a decoder board) I decided to start with connectors that I had desoldered from my donor board.

Also thrilled about the STF case which is in superb condition.

P.S. I swear the soldering looks better in real life.

One question, is there any (performance) difference in using the 72PIN SIMM vs. a Falcon RAM board?
Although I have a spare Falcon RAM board I'll probably go with the SIMMs.

No difference. SIMM socket is neater.
