That’s not concrete evidence. You are not then accounting for a few factors. It’s always best to use something that proves it completely. As the next answer nicely points out CPU-Z or on Linux cat /proc/cpuinfo although I do appreciate in 99% of cases your answer gives a strong indication :)

Holy necromancy, Batman! Blast from the past, if there ever was one. Do note the question includes "I tried various tools but all they do is give you some info about the processor with no actual version (processor number)" thus I tried to give an idea on how to id something based on characteristics and not tools. Today the same would work: socket (or generation), threads/core, gigahertz, vPro support together identifies an Intel CPU. Admittedly: the various CPU info tools work a lot better now.
