Hello everyone! I am very new to PC building, my common sense mind says I need to return this product but let me know what you think. I just received my AMD Threadripper 1920x from a company called Grooves.Land. It came in a nice box with tons of protective padding inside and there was the TR box which is made form lots of protective foam but upon opening the package and looking at the CPU I saw this. (see attached photo)

 

This CPU took awhile to arrive from Germany and I really want to get my build going but at the same time I don't want to build it all and then it doesn't work or soon my CPU fails or something. I need some of the pro's opinions, so thank you in advance for you guidance.

 

Thanks,
