Hi guys.

In the first picture, you have a i7 950 (DO) on the left, and i7 920 (DO) on the right.

The one on the left is one i got the other day!
It seems not as a nice and gold colour as the one on the right, seems like it's burnt?
The pic below is closeup. not best pics sorry.
Is this something i should be concerned about?

Cheers guys.

Judging by the picture, you appear to have bought a car instead of a CPU mate....

looks ok to me,abit of discolouration isnt anythin to worry about imo,if you had missing gold contacts or black scorchmarks id be worried

did you test the 950 in another mb? to makesure its fully working ect?

the middle square though the tiny components look black? cmpared to the other? tried cleaning them with alcahol?
