I have just bought an Athlon XP 1900+ and am concerned that there are no obvious distinguising marks on the chip to prove it's identity. The chip arrived un-boxed in a bag.
Can anyone tell me what I should be seeing on the chip to reassure me that it's the real-deal ??
That photo is for the vision impaired...LOL <A HREF="http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1554&p=2
