"The difference is the packaging and the warranty"
"Box CPUs come in a pretty box and have a warranty. If the CPU normally comes with a stock cooler, there will be one included in the box.
OEM/Tray CPUs come in a plastic tray, that's it. No warranty, no cooler (if applicable), just the processor in a plastic tray."
In the case of this product, the heatsink is not included. It's not a great loss, you can customize your cooling systems to your desires without adding the normally included heatsink to your pile of computer parts that may never be used. Sometimes going OEM is for the best, other times, not so much. At a glance, in this case, I would not mind.
However, it looks like all locations are OOS except MI and MN, and must pick up in store.
