AMD Black Edition Processors Posted: Mon Sep 08, 2008 6:45 pm  Just thought I'd toss this out to you guys since I just got burned. The Black Edition AMD processors, though labeled retail, do NOT include a heatsink and fan. I've been building systems for years and have always ordered retail processors when I only needed stock cooling. Well, now I have a system I need to get out and no freakin heatsink. I'm torqued! _________________ Nine Team Leader Location: Holyoke, MA Joined: Jun 20, 2008  || Posts: 231     Posted: Mon Sep 08, 2008 9:03 pm  look on the bright side, the stock heat sink and fan are not that good anyways. i got a gigabyte aftermarket cooler for like 23 bucks on newegg for my AMD,, and it runs much cooler and it is much quieter because it spins at 1000 rpm instead of 3000.
