this was my same question today when i was looking at the amd athlon xp 2800+ for a friend who's upgrading. the retail is going for $101 and the oem is $104. then i looked at the comparison and saw that besides the retail box having the hs and fan, it used 1.65 volts and the oem used 1.5. does this mean the oem version runs on lower power? ~sOriginally Posted by bhxtyrant
