Put the CPU on a different PCB than the rest of the Mainboard?

Some will be like you, other will want to upgrade from a usable board. Either way, I don’t think the pictures are accurate. I doubt they provide RAM with purchase. The heatsink is possible though.

I would have thought they should provide the heatsink/fan unit. new chip means new thermal requirements which a prior generation solution may not be correct/adequate.
