Did you get the fake in an official box? Or OEM version? This is quite a big claim.

It doesn't strike me as being a big claim, I recently bought some RAM for a NUC a few weeks ago on Amazon only to determine that it was likely counterfeit. It came in an official box with all packaging intact.

  • Then how did you determine it was fake?

    • I installed it in my system after which it had severe stability issues.

      Running dmidecode showed that the part number didn’t match the sticker on the module.
