Hi everyone, sorry to bring up something unrelated to the motherboard itself but I've been trying to complete a rebate and I'm having trouble figuring out if the letter I'm looking at is a number zero or a capital letter "o." 

This is a Z170 Extreme6 motherboard, if anyone can give me a hint I'd be grateful. I don't want the rebate to go awry because of this.

The number goes something like this (will fill in some numbers with "#"

##MOXE####O5

I tried comparing the two "O's" but they look the same to me. 

Both the one in the "word" MOXE and the one in O5

Then again it could be two zeroes.

It's the same on this picture (from ASRock website). All of the round symbols look the same. Do you think these are all letter O's or all zeroes?


Same thing here

Zero, as in 0


As it is confusing, 0 vs O, most if not all manufacturers do not use the letter O

Thanks Wardog! That's good to know :) 

It does look more like a zero than a letter o now that you mention it, but definitely confusing if one thinks there are both letter o's and zeroes. My dad was pretty positive it was a letter but I figured I'd find out for sure :)
