fsb question..


Hey all,

I know this is a stupid question, but an older Athlon (1.33GHz) processor advertised as having a bus speed of 266, really means that the front side bus is running at 133mhz right ?

I've got an older mobo that will do 133mhz FSB, but not 200.

thanks,
-kilka

Yeah, the actual speed will be 133MHz.

But check that your mobo *actually* supports the processor you have - check the manual or manufacturer's website...
