THose arent bridges I believe, they are pads for the legs to the SMD resistors.

Yup, they're solder pads for those SMD caps that are surrounding the die already

ok i understood it.
thank you but why there are free smd caps??
for addictional resistors?

What model is your cpu? If it's a model with only 512k cache per core, they may be for models with 1mb cache per core.

Nah, the 1MB cache cores have the same thing. Here a picture of my 165:

first off, those arent resistors, they are capacitors. and secondly, those arent spots for them, if youve ever seen a chip with empty pads, youd see they are very different. i think those are for programming the cpu.

I bet if the people from AMD read this forum and some of the things we presume they must Laugh their A*** Off
