    AMD Processor in Box

    hi guys, needed some help please. i recently purchase a A64 939 3000+ in retail box, it comes with heatsink and fan, but has the heatsink already applied with TIM? or do i have to buy one and paste it myself?

    thank you so much for your help.

    Have a look. The last Athlon chip I bought (a few weeks ago for a business machine) did have, so I presume it is standard if you buy the retail box. So probably it does, yes, but you can easily check this yourself.
