Finally an original V9958! 8th order!

As we know, the V9958 package has no notch (hole). All fake V9958 have the same code 2703 2122 IACC, and we can notice the painting of the label that is different. (the last one at bellow is the original IC)

Hi, I ordered a V9958 from the link Augusto posted and received a genuine V9958. I've tested in my Media IO board and it works fine. It is obviously a used pull with resoldered legs and looks kind of roughly treated. However, it is a dramatic improvement over the string of fake V9958s I've gotten of late though.

Hi Augusto, I'm having the same trouble trying to source a real v9958. Is there a source you'd recommend?
