I believe that everyone interested in computer DIY knows that the CPU has the original and the packet. Those who want to assemble a computer will be very concerned about whether the CPU is original. When you go to the technology market, you can't just listen to the salesperson's words, and the salesperson will flicker. Many sales people are using this scorpion to take the package as the original box to sell and make money. You know, some businesses now like to lie to people who don't have a computer base, so if you want to assemble a computer yourself, you must recognize whether the purchase is genuine. Now teach a trick to see the authenticity of the CPU.
First, look at the radiator.
Since the packet CPU is mainly disassembled and replaced by a fan, the fan radiator is the best way to identify it. The original product has a good quality radiator, anti-counterfeiting mark, smooth surface, thick bottom, and seven blades. The fake radiator, the quality of the fan is poor, the heat sink is rough, and the hand feel is lighter. The anti-counterfeiting mark on the original fan is very transparent, while the fake one is more turbid.
Second, look at the outer packaging.
Usually the inland packet processor packaging is not very beautiful. The quality of the carton printing of the genuine boxed Intel CPU is higher, the color is more vivid, the traces of the carton sealing glue are continuous dots, there are 12 glue points, and it is very hard, and it is pure white color after tearing. The packaged processor tray is then of poor quality and is grayed out after tearing. The seal is only coated with a small amount of glue and can be easily distinguished. The AMD processor is relatively simple, the two-sided tape seal has a clear concave and convex feeling, and the package does not. Moreover, in recent years, in order to combat packets, many processors have changed the packaging in particular, which can be compared on the official website.
Three, look at the plastic packaging inside the box.
The plastic packaging inside the box has 4 heat sealing points, and there are two small dots at each point. After uncovering, it cannot be restored. In addition to one year of boxing, some dealers have replaced the original fan with a fake fan after the three-year box is unpacked, and then sold the original fan at a high price. If you see the four heat seals of the plastic package have traces of dismantling, such a processor has a three-year warranty, but because the radiator is replaced, the meaning of the box is greatly reduced.
4. Call 800 (8008201100) for free.
This is a free enquiry call from the Intel Support Center. It needs to be dialed between 9 am and 5 pm, Monday through Friday. Intel service personnel will let you report the corresponding sequence on the CPU, heatsink and package. No., then tell you the truth. You can view the SL5VK number on the CPU surface, the box, and the cooling fan. There is a serial number here, and the serial number can be told to the Intel service personnel on the phone. At the same time, the serial number on the surface of the genuine boxed CPU should be the same as the serial number on the box, and it should correspond to the serial number of the cooling fan. You should carefully compare the SLXXX number on the CPU surface, and Whether the stickers outside the box are the same, so that the fakes can be initially identified.
And AMD processor, the official query phone technical support is 800 830 5643, and also opened the SMS query function. For mobile users in Henan and Liaoning, please send: AMD plus 13-digit serial number to 106571090005821, Unicom users please send: AMD plus 13-digit serial number to 10655021888837331. Inland is not the mobile of these two places and Unicom users please send: & ldquo; X & rdquo; space & ldquo; AMD plus 13-digit serial number & rdquo; to 1066109833. This is an excellent way to identify.
5. If you really don't remember these tricks and numbers, there is even more a trick.
Let the profiteers take a package and compare it with an original package. If there is a clear difference between the two, choose a good one; if there is no obvious difference, tell the profiteer to buy the package. Anyway, the package is just a fan, there is no difference in the quality of the processor, and no one can make a fake CPU (think of the history of China's Godson, no one has this technology yet). If you let the profiteer take the original, he is likely to take the package, and if you let the profiteer take the package, he will not take the original package.
This way, when you need to buy a CPU, you will not be deceived by those businessmen. Of course, this is not absolute. If you can't tell the difference, the safest way is to have an experienced computer. To help you choose, so you don't have to spend more money, the chances of buying fakes are also reduced. The author has dedicated five tips to prevent deception, so that a user who is testing the water for the first time can make a vaccination to avoid ruining the purchase mood.
