I recently purchased a Ryzen 7 5800X3D, and I noticed a small 'S' along with the numbers '32006' in the bottom-right corner of the CPU. I've attached a photo for reference. Is this marking common, or should I be concerned?

I don’t remember seeing anything like that on Ryzen CPUs before. It’s probably nothing, but I’d keep an eye on it just in case!
I bought it from a local second-hand marketplace. I'm taking it to a technician for installation and a check with HWiNFO and Cinebench!
That 'S' usually doesn’t indicate much. It's often just a production code. You could check it with hardware monitoring software like HWiNFO once it's installed. Where did you get it from?
