Hmmmm. Will the Hammers really be at 3.5Ghz? Is this fake?

Definately fake. Intel hasnt even hit 3Gigs yet, amd will be a loooooooooong time before they hit 3 let alone 3.5.
 
If that person went to all the trouble to make a fake, they could have at least tried to make it believable...
For instance: make it at a lower frequency, and then try to make the shadows and lighting show on the lettering correctly. If you look closer the light enters from the left side, yet the lighting accents are at the bottom of the lettering. Ahhh well....

Too true how can you forget something like that...:eh?: you go to all that trouble and then... shame
 
Umm.. it doesn't even look like an AMD CHIP let alone a Hammer. You can clearly see that it's a doctored P4 chip. LOL Ghz, that cracks me up

[EDIT] Also, the light is clearly coming from the left... therefor, the shadows inside the letters are wrong, they're depicting light from above [/EDIT]

This is an AMD Hammer pic w/ some additions :p, if you remember THG has made a fake pic of a 3.3 PIV, now someone here in the forums wanted to show how easy it was to make a believable fake pic, that's why he used Ghz instead of GHz, also that's the reason to 3.5Ghz as well. So this is fake but wasn't meant to fool people, but show how easy it is to make a fake pic
 
Yeah, after a couple of misunderstandings, he posted a version with text stating it was fake, and that he just did it for the reason mentioned above.
