I don't know for definite but I'd guess that OcUK simply got a better price on the retail CPUs and so could pass it on. I don't see it as any sort of problem though, I'd buy the retail as you get a 3 year warranty instead of 1 year and you get a cooler even if you never use it, unless with the OEM chips you get a guaranteed stepping there isn't a reason to pay more for it that I can see.
