The only difference is the cheap fan and the warranty. The rest is the luck of the draw. Besides, who needs a three year warranty? After all the chip will be worth a fraction of what you paid well before then.

Warranty schmarranty. As soon as you raise the FSB or take a pencil to it, the warranty is useless anyways.
