apologies for the cryptic title
I've got an OEM 5820k currently sitting in a box while I wait for the last of the parts for my build to turn up, its has 4 small vertical lines that I originally took as being part of the manufacturing process.
The other half got me the chip for chrimbo and the box wasn't sealed in anyway and I assumed that's how it was delivered
just been reading through a couple of build logs and came across an image of a 5820k that didn't appear to have any marks like mine
pic of my chip is in the spoiler tag below (hopefully I've linked it right)
so as per the title of the thread is this normal and am I just being a noob lol
