Hello @84rt3k

Thank you for posting on the Intel️® communities.

We understand you your concern with the Intel® Core™ i7-11700K Processor, we will be more than happy to assist you.

Could you please provide us with the motherboards make and model?

Also, if you have the processor in hand (and not installed in a system) then you can use the processor’s markings numbers and run them through the warranty center to validate if you have the expected processor. You will need two numbers from the markings, batch number (FPO) located on the top of the processors and partial serial (ATPO) number located on the upper side of the processor. Refer to How to Check the Warranty Status of My Intel® Boxed Processor.

Please let us know.

Best regards,

Jose B.
