As i understand the only difference here is that you get a stock cooler, + a longer warranty? But if you plan to use an aftermarket cooler and overclock it, is there really any point in getting a retail chip as i think as soon as you overclock it your warranty is void?
 
Im not too fussed about the extra warranty or cooler, but it had occured to me that with OEM chips retailers may test them and use the best ones in their own systems, which i suppose is putting me off buying OEM
