Dual core heatsinks

[ASSEMBLER]

Do the AMD dual core cpu's run hotter than the single core if so if i buy a AMD 4600+ dual core what heatsink and fan should i be looking at nothing fancy just a regular stock cooler.

Unless you're going to be overclocking, the stock cooler will be fine.

The stock heatsink has really impressed me as far as overclocking as well.

It is not a bad heatsink....
I got a custom one though and it OCs my athlon 3200+ past 2.5 ghz easily.

yes but im buying the OEM CPU so it does not come with the heatsink and fan so what do i need to be looking for. will a regular stock such as a Amd3500+ fan and heatsing be ok or do i need something more powerfull.

Hell, if you are getting OEM and need to buy one, may as well get an aftermarket one.

But to answer your question Yes a regular 3500+ would be fine

BTW

make sure the after market heatsink fits your socket.
754, 939 ect....

i noticed when overclocking my 4800+ there was a big difference to how hot it got compared to voltages. i could get my 4000+ up to around 1.5v compared to my 4800+ were it was 1.4 before it started hitting the 55 degrees C mark for both

EDIT lambofgod have you ever made naplam?
