is there a diiff besides one is OEM and one reatil?

ok..only difference is just that..OEM=limited(can be as little as none up to 1-3 yrs) and Retail=AMD manufacturer 3 yr warranty

You can check the reliability of online stores at Reseller Ratings. There will be a difference in price between the OEM and retail boxes, usually $10-$20 depending on the chip.

Don't trust pricewatch, the lowest prices are often from stores with awful scores at www.ResellerRatings.com for poor service (lying about stock, shipping used or remarked chips, not accepting valid RMAs, etc.).

Spend a little extra and buy from newegg.com.
