I'm looking for that CPU, but there are alot of models. From translating the words I got:
revealed by the grid mystery scrire exact phrase playoff era
Intel Confidential
ws on (windows?) 8

Any idea where the picture is from?
I'm looking to find it, I tried cleaning up the image to make i eligible but it just blurs out the words.

I know it's none of the processors that have been released to the public. Your sample has pads around the edge which all available desktop processors lack. Your sample also has a rectangular heatspreader, all current have square. Your sample has the notches very near one end, current cpus have those notches slightly offset from the middle of the processor, but very definitely near the middle. About the only thing I can come up with is that it's a development processor that's been designed so it cannot ever fit a desktop pc should it find it's way into the wild.

What magazine? Did you take the picture? -Also why do you want to know if you will most likely not be able to get the equipment to use the CPU?

Well regardless, only engineers and developers are allowed this equipment-it is illegal to sell it. And it is supposed to be confidential, hence the name on the CPU.
I couldn't figure out nor find this CPU-but it's in a recent magazine, chances are-it is a new CPU or APU in the works for Intel.

Yeah I took it from a french magazine. They have a game running on these days, and naming the type (family I believe?) of this processor is one of the questions. :)
I imagine indeed that with the word "Confidential", this processor is not yet released but I thought maybe one of you guys might have the answer as nobody else seems to have it...

Well with confidential equipment, you sign a NDA (non disclosure agreement), so it would be illegal to say anything about it. So possibly one of users here know what it is, but could not tell you regardless. Sorry I was not able to assist you in discovering this CPU model or family. good luck :)
