Would this be considered a P4/Green Fiber With Metal or a No Pin CPU?

Just want to be sure I understand how these would be graded.
Here is a closeup of each one.

These are always considered no pin CPU's. Unless of coarse they are i series and can be tested for sale to boardsort as working CPU's.

Do you understand what a pin is?

Seems like an obvious thing but every now and then the way people ask things I wonder if they don't.

Yes I understand, but for those reading this thread, what is the best definition/description of a pin?

Test

Well that worked... let's try...

Pinless = LGA (Land Grid Array) No pins on the processor leaving it mostly flat; the pins are actually in the socket and the processor lays on top of them.

With pins = PGA (Pin Grid Array) There are multiple rows of pins on the processor that are inserted into a socket, just like plugging in a lamp into a wall socket.
