The Intel Golden is one fake, and the cyrix geode 366 is the other fake.
Remember that the maxium speed of the cyrix mediagx and geode technology is 333Mhz.

Dude! We are talking about Geode not 6x86!

Maybe we need an extra categorie for ebay-auction links?

I don't think so. No obvious motivation for that. I will probably get a few of them next month, if anyone want to test I can send one.

As for the gold Pentiums, technically they are TCP package on PGA adaptors. As long as they have the same marking and speed as that on the TCP packages, I don't think they are fakes. i.e. TT8050x is ok, but A8050x and BP8050x are not good . (for me)
