Hello, dear users!
I need your advice. Today I have bought a new processor in a computer store.
I've received the processor with the sticker on ... its pins that should not be touched. I was told that if I remove this sticker, I lose the guarantee...
Will it work if I put it into the socket like I was told to put it(with a sticker on it), or should I remove the sticker.
I tend to believe that they're not right.
Thanks in advance,
Nick

any chance you can upload a photo of this? it sounds very strange to me.

Ya a picture would be great. Or even telling us what the processor is and where it was bought and what the sticker says. I have never seen a processor with a sticker on it.

is it a sticker or a thermal pad?

might have been a celeron stickered as a duo or something higher end...pics man, take some pictures of the chip and upload to imageshack or something...hope you know how to do both

There shouldn't be a sticker on it anywhere. There is a piece of plastic on the bottom for protection but it should be removed.

Are you sure they weren't talking about the sticker on the box?

I've seen that sticker on lga 775 mobo's. On the plastic cover thats on the cpu socket. Never on a cpu though.

Same here never seen a sticker on the proc itself just on the box.
