Highest clocked Windsor available at a comfortable price, and the highest clocked Windsor that doesn't have a TDP of 125W (that's the 6000+). Furthermore, at 2.8GHz the 5600+ has an even clock divider so the RAM runs at full DDR2-800 (6000 and 5200 don't).
AMD cheaped out on the heatsink. Just your generic all-aluminum heatsink with an equally-generic fan on top. Doesn't befit a processor with a TDP of 89W. Attachment to the board took a lot of effort and time and forced me to worry about possibly breaking the motherboard from all that stress.

CPU is great, I upgraded from a 3800+ and I can definitely see a difference.
Retail fan broke after about a week, would work off and on, when system booted up sometimes would not work at all, unplugged fan, plugged back in and it would work on reboot, til next reboot. When I went to replace the fan and heat sink, they had glued themselves to my CPU, when I tried to remove the heatsink it ripped my CPU right out bending a row of pins. I was able to bend them back and so far haven't had any trouble with the CPU, but beware the retail fan.
