Re: So since Intel have now confirmed that are unwilling to fix...

Actually, most of the CPUs I've bought new from retailers have been the retail version - they're practically the same cost and come with a cooler that's guaranteed to work (if perhaps not to be the most effective option).

My latest CPUs were second hand, though, as buying new Xeons is more than a little expensive for a non business user..
