Great review!

I notice you make this comment:
Quote:
Intel’s X48 has long been considered the older sibling to X38 and is continually referred to as a higher 'binned' X38 chipset offering nothing new that we haven't seen before. This is partially true, however, X38 appears to have been conceived with at least one different set of genes. Despite the similarity, there are noticeable differences that set the X48 chipset apart as a refined performance monster.
What are those noticeable differences? I saw that you got a bit more out of the FSB. Any others?
