Two pictures of Intel CPUs seem unnecessary to me

[edit]

I'd like to hear others' opinions before I remove one. Digital27 (talk) 08:02, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[]

I'm not sure if you mean in the lead, but if you do, I don't think either should be removed. One shows the outside and the other the inside, both of which are interesting. It doesn't matter that much that they're Intel -- it's just the Commons has. Intel isn't exactly marketing on Wikipedia or anything. Mrfoogles (talk) 00:28, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[]

Boxed and Tray?

[edit]

It seems it's only an Intel thing, but it's very relevant with the recent f** up. At least for Intel it seems it's an important distinction. I think it should be covered. I personally don't have a clue about it. 46.188.177.176 (talk) 16:32, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[]
