Wrong CPU being shown by the BIOS

The Intel utility identification of Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 4812 @ 1.60GHz
is also bogus, as I tried looking on processorfinder.intel.com
and there is no X4812 that I could find. So even the Intel
utility is being fooled by something. But exactly
what, I cannot tell you.

There is a bootable OS-independent version of the PIU:

That should eliminate Windows as a source of obfuscation, if that is
possible.
