Well I just scanned it here at work: http://pics.bbzzdd.com/users/sm8000/amd2.gif

I uploaded the pics to forums.amd.com last night and somebody there says I have a real 3200+ and not a faked one

The top left corner of the core appears slightly chipped, but I'll cross my fingers.

Nice pic. Gonna have to remember the scanner trick.

What's wrong with getting the picture off the internet, I can't see why your cpu picture should look any different than other people's.
Never mind, pwned for not reading the whole thread before replying.

put it under bright light, turn the flash off, and use macro mode

I was gonna say with a camera but this covers it.

More like a northbridge heat sink.
