I'm ordering the E8400 cpu, and Buy.com has the best online deal I've found. But it has 2 prices on what seems like the same product. I ordered this one:
http://www.buy.com/prod/intel-core-2-duo-e8400-lga775-3-00ghz-6mb-cache-1333mhz-fsb-dual-core/q/loc/101/206459005.html
But this one is ALSO from buy.com, and it costs more:

As far as I can tell, both are the same cpu, but one costs more, has a slightly darker blue box, and does not have the "a" at the end of the manufacturer's part number. Is the one I ordered inferior in some way? I'd like to know so I can cancel my order if necessary. Thanks
PS I'd also appreciate any additional feedback on my thread below about the E8400 on the ASUS P5KC motherboard.
