Is the BX80546KG3400EUSL exact part number? Intel often puts <part_number><s-spec number> (without space) on their boxed processors, so, for example, for SL7DY s-spec number the box will have BX80546KG3400EUSL7DY.

I intend to purchase these chips and the seller said:
BX80546KG3400EUSL with the letters EUSL and they stand for the stepping.
That's where the confusion sets in.

Strange... EUSL does not stand for the stepping, SLxxx s-spec number usually tells the processor stepping. "EU" in the BX80546KG3400EU part number stands for:
E - 1 MB L2 cache
U - 1U heatsink
I think the seller is mistaken.
