Oh really. If you were AMD and you were trying to compete against Intel, what the heck would you do? You don't have time to worry about that stuff right now, and besides, who the heck cares. Ever since I have been using AMD (2 years ago) with my Duron 650 Spitefire (codename) I have never had a problem with overheating. Now I run an original Socket A Athlon (thunderbird) 1400, Not a problem. Yes, AMD should build heatsinks into their processors, however they currently don't and you can do anything about it. And by the way, after reading half of the replies, I get sick of hearing about how loud the stock fan, SO WHAT, just replace it. The chances of your processor overheating (if you install it right and DON'T OVERCLOCK) are so low, it's not even funny. And oh yeah, for those of you who say that the core crushes in really easily, sure it does, if you take a sledgehammer to it ;)
