    did u watch the pentium 4 one? its the same people and if you didnt see all the smoke (comming from the firecracker or other explosive device they were using to blow the thing up) then what do you think its from also check out the monitor cords the one for the monitor is it hink white but the one going to the motherboard is black i think or vice-versa and how do you think the holes got there...on a cpu what would be exploding? the silicon? last time i checked theres nothing explosive on a cpu all it would do is heat up fry burn and melt if it got that hot without dieing first also if you look close when they take off the cpu fan (which they did so without using a screw driver signifying that it wasnt on right) the bar that holds the cpu isnt down all the way and id almost assume that the computer wouldnt stay on as long as it did on stock cooling with the voltage over 4V to the cpu

    I think it's a fake.
    The chip case should melt... not explode!!!
    A chip is made of silicon not TNT.

    Your wrong on the video cable, the white cord is plugged into a com slot, yeah i know the heads look similar, but ya clearly see the black monitor cable going in the video card which is not on the motherboard. As for the cpu exploding, well yeah we know thats not really possible. However an electrical surge/arc would be enough to put a whole in the table and maybe crack and send the cpu flying. Good way to test is to stick a screw driver in an outlet socket. Still the identical hole in the table makes it questionable.
