Let me know what you think. Thanks. Voltage and Code seem right but the package doesn't seem right to other pictures I have seen.

many c3 came soldered in motherboards, but VIA also sold these in pga370 format
i think most ezra came for socket 370

Matches what I expect from an Ezra. Like this one
My Ezra-T has 12 SMD capacitors on the front side and a different row of cuttable bridges on the bottom side.

I bought one from that seller last year -- was mint. I've since bought some Ezra-Ts... I believe there are about 3 up for sale right now -- two of them being the fastest 1.0Ghz and one is an 800mhz.
