No difference in clocking between B3 and B2 on the same board/BIOS. B3 addresses some power management and low power state errata along with a few other minor changes but it was not meant to address performance changes. Performance improvements will come from better BIOS and board designs along with continued manufacturing process maturity on the X58, not any B3 stepping design changes.
