The difference today is that we cannot overclock the fsb/bclk anymore since they set everything (SATA, PCIe, etc) to run off that frequency - and those portions cannot be locked to a set value like we could do back in the 'good old days.'
Well, with a little clever engineering, they could be locked to their proper clockspeeds, but Intel intentionally De-engineered them, to prevent overclocking.

What if they made an I3 3120K

I would flip out, that thing would be awesome.

How about an UNLOCKABLE i3 3120k!

Obviously it won't happen, but still fun to talk about. AMD's enthusiast market would plummet if such a product existed.
