Title - "AMD Opteron 165 Integrated Heat Spreader - NO RESERVE"

Kind of vague - that could easily be interpreted as being an AMD Opteron 165 with Integrated Heat Spreader. I see some negative feedback coming when the dufus who buys this finds out they didn't buy a processor.

Look at the item description:

You are bidding on an AMD Opteron 165 Integrated Heat Spreader. It was pulled from an dual core processor -- Boldface is my doing.

There's nothing vague about that; the winner is a complete idiot if he thinks there is anything more than just the spreader.

Could be someone buying it, and sticking it on a single core 939 naked chip, then selling it as a 165 and ripping someone else off?

That would be a dirty little trick...take a naked 3000+ and superglue the 165 IHS onto it...worse things have happened on Ebay :frown:

My thoughts exactly, i think the 0534MPMW was a good stepping, my 165 stepping is 0534SPMW which is good but not as good as that stepping IIRC. So it could be desirable if you faked a processor. There is a lot of ebay scum out there that would actually do this.
