Are stock heat sinks any good?

I'm waiting for my new T-Bird 1000 to arrive and would like to know if the heat sink and fan that comes with the processor are adequate or should I go with better cooling? The cpu won't be overclocked for now. I know that if O.C.ing, better cooling is needed.

If a retail package, it will come with an AMD approved HS/F and will be fine. If the CPU is OEM and the vendor is bundling one, there's no telling.
