whilst looking at the AM2 X2 cpu's on ocuk i read this

"A new pin out configuration which requires new heat sink fan configuration is also required. AM2 heatsinks will be available shortly and all our AM2 processors are retail boxed supplied with heatsinks and fan."

does this mean the heatsink and fan that the cpu is shipped with isnt good enough? i found this a bit ambiguous.

cheers
 
The shipping sink is fine for stock and a little overclocking too. At the time they put that message most 3rd party sinks could'nt fit the AM2 socket. Dunno why that message is still there tbh as it was quite a while ago.
