Looks like AMD got serious about going after those shady individuals in the pacific rim who were re-branding their chips. Pirate scum. Yarrrrr...

"The chipmaker said that Taiwanese law enforcement authorities on Thursday raided four companies in that country that were suspected of tampering with or selling relabeled AMD processors. Numerous people were arrested, said AMD spokeswoman Catherine Abbinanti, and a number of chips were confiscated."
