I remove all OEM heatsinks, and leave the Intel Retail ones.
For international collectors, most remove all heatsinks, as it adds alot to shipping.

I do the same. Remove all except Intel retail heatsinks. I only keep an oem heatsink if it is really interesting or unusual.

I remove all heat-sinks
on a side note >> retail heat-sinks are common in Oz.. where as in the US.. OEM heat-sinks are more common

| As many others have said; I leave all retail heatsinks on, and some OEM heatsinks if they are interesting. |
