Sandy Bridge Heatsink

[QuackPot]

I noticed on in the specs that there is a big red cross next to heatsink. I presume the new Sandy Bridge CPUs do come with a heatsink?

Retail (boxed) CPU will come with heatsink
OEM usually do not

If you want an aftermarket cooler, note the socket type of the cpu you are interested in and look in the relevant sections in air cooling. Some coolers are multi fitment so may be in the 'multi' section of cooling.
