3800+ x2 booklet + cooling fan?

Basically you get setup instructions, A little X2 case badge, Warrenty information and some other information I think(multi language).

The cooler is pretty much a bog standard looking heatsink and fan jobby, I believe the X2 one has a copper core though.

(never used mine due to the Zalman 9500).
 
My retail X2 3800+ came with (as far as I can tell) the exact same all-aluminium heatsink that I got with my old 3000+ Winie.

I think maybe the faster chips and/or the Opterons get a better heatsink - with copper core and maybe heatpipes?

Anyway, I bought an Artic Freezer 64 Pro at the same time as my X2, so can't say how the stock cooler performs, but my guess would be that it's not as capable for overclocking as it was for the single core A64s.
