It's TRUE, not a fake. Smile

Actually this one is BGA on PGA adapter, I don't know it's original by IDT or not.

Here is the datasheet of them.

Thank you pinkie but I will not believe it is genuine IDT product to moment when somebody will say he/she tested it and it can work.

Wow, I have never seen the WC3 before,
were did you found this picture, Marcin?
Does somebody know if IDT was manufacturing a
(small) series-production of the WinChip3? I guess not?
