Forgot to mention, the 80531 numbers on the CPU are for the OLD northwoods (ie. the 2.0GHz chip I mentioned). Any sort of P4-3.3-3.6 should have 80532 or 3. Earlier in one of his other reviews an IDENTICAL chip with identical markings (except for PC3.3) was shown, and this was the 2GHz (older 80531) P4. Anyway, here is the article in question: http://www6.tomshardware.com/cpu/02q3/020909/index.html Right there on the front page you can see the faked CPU pic. ftp://speedycpu.dyndns.org/pub/misc/p4-fake1.jpg - Fake pic ftp://speedycpu.dyndns.org/pub/misc/p4-fake2.jpg - Pic showing identical pixels for both 3's with a black square around it. ftp://speedycpu.dyndns.org/pub/misc/p4-fake3.jpg Wider view so you can see the black square better (where it was actually cut&pasted) Again, if anyone thinks Tomshardware is the only one bought & paid for by Intel *OR* the only one faking reviews you are sadly mistaken.
