your choice mate, personally i wouldnt want to lose 200 quid for the sake of one pin, either lie on ebay or keep it...
most people on forums will use it as a blag to knock half price off it...
just claim your stupid too and you didnt know if anyone says anything... for all i know the venice i just bought could have 900 pins, i didnt bother checking,..
whats the highest oc you can manage on air with that badboy... you say its sitting at 2.8ghz as i may swap my venice, dfi and 6600gt with fatty, but i dont know if ill make it all back so i might keep it...
