What is the difference between a

Pentium 4 3,2 GHz
(mPGA, "Northwood")

And a

Pentium 4 3,2 GHz
(mPGA, boxed, "Northwood")

I mean one is boxed an the other not? but what is boxed?

Boxed usually means it comes with a pretty decent fan and heat sink.

Ah, okay. There is only a 10 EUR difference, so it doesn't really matter but I wanted to know the difference before I order it. Thank you!
