I donīt see a Nexgen often, imo its a uncommon cpu (still need to get one sometime XD).
The other thing is a Socket 370 terminator.
So itīs a dummy chip Razz

Nexgen are quite rare now. As leevmeister told you the other "chip" is a Socket370 terminator, it's needed by some dual-cpu motherboard to run in mono-processore setup. No chips at all only some resistors on it.
