You can properly identify a processor by running the Intel® Processor Identification Utility.

You can download the Intel® Processor Identification Utility at:

http://www.intel.com/support/processors/tools/piu/ http://www.intel.com/support/processors/tools/piu/

If you are referring to physically identify the processor, I would suggest also calling the local support center at:

http://www.intel.com/support/9089.htm http://www.intel.com/support/9089.htm

And providing them all the information on top of the processor, so the customer service agent will be able to determine if it is an original processor from Intel.
