A quick google suggests it comes with the same cooler that the FX62 uses. That'd be their 4 heatpipe cooler with the 80mm fan. I can't see them shipping a 3.0GHz dual core with their aluminium box 70mm cooler

cheers, i already have that cooler i was wondering if it came with anything better that was all, as the FX55 IIRC came with a 4 heatpipe cooler but they were a lot thicker and nickle plated.

Aye, I too noticed that AMD seemed to ship two different types of Heatpipe Coolers.

I saw this one first

but more recently with the FX62's and those QuadFX chips

As for which of the two you'd get, I'm not really that sure.

I should imagine they'd perform quite similarly, although the first one seems to come with a chunkier 80mm fan.

yeah the second one is what ive got at the moment, pretty sure im going to order a 5600+ next week which is basicly an FX-62, the first cooler looks better tbh as u say it has a chunker fan.
