Are you going to overclock it?

You don't need to burn it in, that is just a myth. Anything that need to be done to the cpu has already been done at the factory.

You just need to let the cpu run for 72 hours or so. If it's going to die, it will more than likely do it within that time frame. Vendors/manufacturers should do that before shipping you a cpu. They are supposed to do this with all components.
