AMD Duron 1800 Fake?

[Rowan]

I'm actually bidding for a AMD Duron. There's a sticker on it with the code: DHD1800V1C . The code comes incomplete to me, because a part—the "DL"—is missing. Is it a fake CPU? Take a look: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6816648619&sspagename=ADME:L:RTQ:DE:1

The picture on the auction page is too small, it's not possible to tell a part number from it. I do see "L" on the picture. Did you ask the seller for better picture of the processor?

She told me the complete sign salad on the sticker:
DHD1800V1C T866882F42035
MIXJB0423BPMW

If it's an actual part number then it could be a fake. I do think the seller missed two letters in the part number. "D" is easy to miss, and the picture clearly has "L" in the part number. Try to ask him/her one more time, or ask to send you a picture.

at the very least, it should be DHD1800D?V1C

i agree with genna, the ? looks like an L

that certainly sounds like a duron, so it could be legit.

if you win it and its not a duron 1800, ask the seller for a refund, or file a dispute for not as described

I have a DHD1600DLV1C which is an awesome chip. Appalbred Durons were available as 1400MHz, 1600MHz(like mine) and 1800MHz variants. Apart from the missing "L" this seems to me like a genuine Duron, the best Duron ever
