We will present the results of cosmological hydro/N-body adaptive mesh refinement simulations in a concordance LCDM cosmology with a peak resolution of approximately 16 kpc. These simulations include radiative cooling, star formation, and supernova feedback. We find that there are very significant differences between cool core (CC) and non-cool core (NCC) galaxy clusters in their properties beyond the cores (r>100 kpc). For example, the shapes and outer slopes of the synthetic X-ray surface brightness and the temperature profiles are strikingly different between NCC and CC clusters. Beta models are poor fits for r>500 kpc in CC clusters leading to inaccurate global mass estimates and strong deviations from scaling relations in contrast to NCC clusters. We will discuss possible explanations involving differences in the local environments in which these clusters form and evolve.
