I know they getting pretty common.. but i always think it worth showing fakers handy work.. so you can pick them out in ur collection
The latest i picked up this morning.. what i thought was a nice early SX963 .. turned out to be 75MHz SX969
Both the top & bottom surfaces had been painted & remarked.. but very well i thought  _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world:

How about that? Fake P100s came in both trademark and registered versions! That straight leg 'R' really gives them away
Here is another one - a fake P200mmx. The Intel Pentium with MMX tech on the underside is something I haven't seen on other fakes.

Did a tally of what fakes i have mostly found (with the occasional one i have bought )
the tally came to 29
including 486s, 486 ODs, P1s, P2s, skt 370 P3s & skt 462 Athlons
but in context... that is in a total of 1800 - 1900 chips (lot of duplicates i have ended up finding)
so on that basis.. 1.5 chips in every 100 is likely to be a fake.. but taking half out cos they are poor fakes & would be picked out..
that still means that 1 chip in every 150 in peoples collections is likely to be an unrecognised fake  _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world:

Well, if this would be true, maybe I had to take a closer look at my 543 CPUs None of them seems to be a fake. The already run stable at their specified clocks and also their CPUIDs are (if avaliable) correct. Even the Intel CPU frequency ID tool to check if the processor isn't a fake says that all my newer Intel processors are ok. For AMD or other CPUs I haven't found such a tool.

picked up another fake today
but the SL25N looked good.. so i thought i would use some acetone to clean a sticker off the bottom (the markings on genuine pentiums are not affected by acetone)
The only thing that caught my attention.. was that the print in the heat-sink was whiter than normal. Must of been slow today cos i didnt pick up that the part was marked BP80503233
While cleaning... there was streaks of white & black paint coming off the processor... so then that i realised that i had a fake
So soaked in acetone, to remove the rest of paint.. and now i have a pristine SL23V BP80503166  _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world:

Clock: 90 @ 133 / Icomp: 735 @ 1110
But why was not modified the SPEC number?
