Looking at the i5 2500k, the retail is £6 more.
It's not that i'm worried about the price difference, i'm just genuinely curious..What's the difference?
Is it the box? :confused:

When you overclock the cpu doesn't the warranty become void?

I went for retail just for the 3 years warranty but I thought once you've overclocked it they won't accept warranty or somthing I could be wrong.
