Hardcore overclockers will always prefer BIOS settings or even jumpers, rather than use overclocking software. With limited enthusiasm for such programs in the X48-T2R’s target market, DFI simply included the third-party freeware clock generator tweaking utility ClockGen.
DFI also includes a system monitoring utility for the ITE IT8718F sensor.

DFI packs its Northbridge sink and audio module separately from the motherboard, but the rest of the installation kit looks rather basic. Users who prefer hardware overclocking will appreciate how DFI adds an extra package of jumpers with easy-grab tabs.

Where is the Cost/Performance ratio.
I think ASrock have done well to put forward a competitive offering and I reckon they will be notably cheaper. I think they bring the enthusiam to the masses.
I personally would go for the Gigabyte or DFI board, because their builds are quality and could conceivably last for years.
