    My favorite part about these pictures is that it has hardly any relation to the thing they’re selling. There is no iceberg-looking illuminated pretend IC with more circuit board traces on top, for some reason.

    But the reason they do it is because it helps make a sale. Some people quite literally will choose this product because “ooh shiny rendered picture.”

    Here’s a real picture of a QCC5124:

      And the people who are actually looking for that board would see your picture and buy it because “ooh castellated solder pads”

      I would, i fucking love soldering castellated edges

    They’re illustrating how hot the chip will run when you use their included cooling solution.
