Hello All,

 

I need help identify if my i7 2600k is genuine. Please find in attached the photo of my CPU.

I manage to get ATPO code by scaning the QR Code at the bottom of the processor.

Thank you for the help of expert here

Hello sinotrade. Can you post a pic of the back of the processor? By the way you seems able to find the atpo it's already a good sign that your processor is genuine.

As you can see on Intel website here : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000021613/processors/intel-core-processors.html Read ATPO Serial Numbers for Intel® Boxed Processors Using Third... i quote "Full ATPO serial numbers help accurately identify your Intel® Boxed Processor, tray processor, or processor warranty period." I advise to install Intel software as well in order to check authenticity or your processor, like this one: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/19792/Intel-Processor-Diagnostic-Tool?product=873 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/19792/Intel-Processor-Diagnostic-Tool?product=873 , the Intel software will not fail to spot a fake processor and will read information right from the bios !

Cheers!

Why do you suspect it is not genuine? Or, are you attempting to market these processors on this site?

Hi again sinotrade, very fast reply haha. As far as i can see, from your photo, it is a socket 1155. Again since you get the ATPO your processor shouldn't be fake.

 

As advised in my previous post, use intel software to check authenticity, or if you are able to do, start your computer and hit "del" key or "f2" key in order to enter

the bios, you will know for sure the correct information of your processor.
