Seems to be the same exact board as the X38 but they just swapped out the chipset. All cooling is the same. Board came directly from DFI (ordered from motherboardpro.com) in CA after passing customs. Packaging was absolute crap...Just motherboard box thrown in a larger FedEx box, no insulation, and rattled around a lot in shipping.

Think it says "X38" underneath "X48" sticker, but haven't pulled it off.
