- naked CPU
- on a wet, natural surface
- not linear against the table
- can't zoom in on my current device for further clues...(delidded or visible signs of damage via 'usage' or improper handling)?
Not an AMD chip.
I see nothing wrong with this picture.
Interesting choice of motherboard.....
It's a terrible photo. Naff composition, lighting, focus, exposure...
is it an ebay sellers pic that says 'new CPU never used'?

Looks like a lot of scratches/scuffs on for a CPU.....almost like it's been used as a hockey puck.

I could only find 994 so I won't waste everyone's time posting an incomplete answer.

2.66 GHZ chip so it is either mobile or a very expensive Xeon
Probably an i7 920. I was just saying to someone yesterday that Intel chips seem fairly indestructible and I'd have no problem buying a 2nd hand CPU but there are limits... (the context for which was the fact that you can grab westmere (32nm) 6 core Xeons for less than £50, though the motherboards are nowhere near as easy to get hold of or as cheap).
Its Upside Down
is this from Ebay then or just an old one of yours
Neither. It's a very cheap i7.
It's absolutely an i7 920, pretty obvious from the i7 920 product code written on it.
And yes, I've got both a 6-core Westmere Xeon in an X58 motherboard that cost me over £250 new, and still goes for around that much on Ebay. Great combo.
It's water-cooled.
