Pretty sure just faster.

They also run a *lot* cooler.  Which is good if you are or are not an
overclocker.  For the overclockers, it means more mhz with less cooling.  And
for non-overclockers, it means less heat, and less fan noise.  My mom just
bought a store bought computer, and that thing sounds like a rocket ship.
