My computer was over heating so I gave it to local assembler for a repair once I got back to the assembler after 2 days. He had that there was nothing wrong in it and he had not done anything to it.
Surprisingly the problem had gone. I doubt that he must have replaced some parts. So I checked all the parts with there respective serial no’s on bill and found nothing wrong in it except cpu’fan and heat sink as there is no serial of there on bill. Please tell me the ways to identify it whether they original AMD heat sink and fan supplied in box of processor. So I may know I am not being cheated. I have a amd athlon 64 3000+(754 pin)

Firstly...How did u check the CPU....

If the new heatsink fan is working fine then u thank him for cheating u beacues heatsink is nothing but alluminium so if this is working better than original...THIS IS BETTER.

If u really want to know...all amd fans have a hologram on them...u can see it clearly...
