mono"Granite looks like the original not the more recent DSA set..."
Well, it looks like the original Tai Hao set, so there is no surprise there (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=58110.0, but a million other resources with shots of these caps). But, I wouldn't say it looks like the "original granite". From every impression I've been given, granite is based on this SGI set:

, which has **much** lighter mods. To me, the Granite DSA set is more loyal to the original Granite, while Tai Hao's set is more like granite alphas with darker mods (almost Dolch mods), which is both fine and expected.
Either that, or all pics of SGI boards have aged **horribly** and those dark mods turn to a light grey...
