Tigerdirect is offering a $50 rebate on a couple of Intel 965 mobos if you also buy a Core 2 Duo, and I just noticed that the rebate requires the OEM version of a C2D. I read that the main differences b/t OEM and retail are 1) whether it includes a fan, and 2) the retail has a 3 year warranty - vs. OEM's one month warranty.
But when I look at TigerDirect's e6600 warranty page it says 12 months parts 12 months labor. Is this a misprint, or do retailers often extend warranties as a competitive advantage or whatever? It may be more than 30 days before I gather all the components and actually start building the system, so I'm hesitant to buy a CPU with a 30-day warranty.
