So i bought an AMD FX 8320 Black Edition processor. It was not in a metal package. I think that is the new version?

however. when i checked the user manual it seems that the stock Heatsink Fan which comes with the CPU has an AMD logo in the middle, and looks slightly different from the one i found. the lever doesn't look the same.

I also noticed the fan has "Cooler Master" written on it. So it is totally not an AMD fan.

Is that normal? have i been deceived? I know CM is good at cooling, i'm getting Hyper 212 Evo either ways. but i just want to make sure that I've not been fooled.
Did anyone else find a CM Heatsink fan?

Thanks.

The box and heatsink itself look correct, and my stock fan is labeled AVC, it might just vary depending on location. Either way, it would work, and since you said you are going to replace it I wouldnt worry.

Yes I've got a picture of it showing the "Cooler" Master written on it: http://goo.gl/1exrrt . sorry for the bad quality though, my tablet's camera isn't clearly the best. :)
I didn't purchase it online if that is what you're asking about. i bought it from a mall in Cairo. (I do live in Egypt, but in another city) It has 3 years warranty. and i just got it 2 weeks ago.
Here is also a picture of the cardboard box itself: http://goo.gl/oTct3s

It's perfectly normal. I guess cooler master is one of the manufacturers they are working with.

Here's a picture of the stock fan that is supposed to come with the 8320 and from what I can tell in your pic above, it's the same.
