How to identify the motherboard authenticity

A, motherboard identification is now rampant counterfeits, small to the needle and thread, large to the car, from less than a few cents of the pencil, to people in the life and death of the medical equipment, none of which is not flooded with fake goods, fake goods on the harm is also very large, coincidentally, today, my friend brought a piece of MSI's motherboard said that let the editorial to help look at the editorial at a glance, I can see that this piece of the motherboard is a fake MSI motherboard, rough workmanship, speculative, and the motherboard is a fake. Take this opportunity to introduce you to the method of recognizing the real and fake motherboards. I'll teach you a few simple methods: first of all, you can look at the product logo printed on the motherboard. The real motherboard will be printed clearly, like the MSI motherboard in addition to indicate the model number (most of the north bridge named, such as 865PE, etc.) will also be printed with the factory number, that is, we often see the MS-XXXX and so on. Fake motherboards are printed fuzzy, thin font, and the board does not have such a logo MS-XXXX. Second, the interface material second point is also the most important point is the material, the purpose of making fake goods is nothing more than profit, and profit from there, it is from the material. When you pick, you can first look at the motherboard's I / O interface, some big manufacturers will use very good quality interface, such as network card slot using Foxconn products, this is to ensure that more than N times of insertion and removal. Fake goods will choose some of the interface without brand, it is likely that after a few insertion and extraction will be damaged. Third, the motherboard chip is then the North and South Bridge chips, there are many fakes will be used on the old board removed from the bulk, with the advanced technology, spherical solder joints has not been a technical challenge, it is easy to do a perfect weld, but such old goods bulk is very easy to use for a long time after the emergence of unstable situations. This motherboard south bridge chip number FW82801FB, that is, we often say ICH6, we can see, this really south bridge chip, font clear, neat, printed very standardized. And this is my friend's machine on the South Bridge chip, we can see, the font is extremely unclear, and Intel's English letters actually printed crooked, a clear-eyed person will know that this product belongs to the polished goods, more than from the old motherboard removed, polished and become, the quality is not guaranteed at all. Fourth, the motherboard capacitors and then, is the capacitor, low-quality capacitors in the high temperature generated by prolonged use, it is easy to produce bursting and other phenomena. Generally large manufacturers will use large brands and high-capacity capacitors, so that first of all, to ensure the stability of the power supply to the CPU, and secondly, to avoid high temperatures brought about by a variety of problems. Fifth, the CPU slot There is also a point is the CPU slot, the use of old goods can be seen interface dull, and no luster, slightly black. As for that true that false do not need to say more, right? I would like to say one more thing here is the flywire products. Maybe some rookies for the concept of fly-by-wire is not a very good understanding of the fly-by-wire refers to the design of the motherboard or its own problems, manual modification, mostly on the back of the motherboard, between the two alignment, to connect the short line, we may always think that the board is not good, problematic, in fact, not, fly-by-wire board can be seen in the manufacturers of the consumer's responsibility to fly-by-wire all the need for manual manual soldering, invisible! Increased costs, if you come across such a board can be assured of purchase.
