Where to buy genuine Intel NICs?

Hello,

Reading lots of stories about people getting knock-of Intel cards, even from "legit" vendors.

What is a good way to make sure that I get a genuine Intel part and not one of these "counterfeit" cards?

I am looking at an i350T4V2 or i350T2V2, but the prices are all over the place from $50 deals to $400.... So I don't know ho much I should pay or how to tell if it is a real card.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi JcL123,

 

 

Thank you for posting in Wired Communities. You can contact our authorized resellers which can be found at http://locate.intel.com to check for the price and product availability. Please ensure the network card has Yottamark label when purchase, this label allows you to authenticate the network card. Here is the website for you to refer to about Yottamark label.
