Intel CPU Serial number

[chrislmc]

Hi All,

I got a new CPU today, an OEM Q6700. I have read that all Q6700's are 'G' stepping, however I noticed that there was a 'serial number' in the invoice, but as the CPU is in a box with not much else, no seals ect, I wanted to check if it matched up...

Question is how?

the only markings are as follows:

INTEL '05 Q6700
INTEL CORE 2 QUAD
SLACQ MALAY
2.66GHZ/8M/1066/05A
L817B038 04

Any idea how to tell serial number? also any intel buff know if thats a good batch or not? I suppose I'll soon know!
