    What is the difference? Can someone post a hi-rez picture of their 1647 with the cover off for me to see?

    Thanks!

    I wouldn't mind seeing as well. Main difference seems to be the fact that the 1645's can support 4 cores. The 1647 is for dual cores only (ie i5-540 and i7-620). Thus the 1645 is more 'future-proof' so to speak.

    But the sockets are the same. I was looking for HW differences.
