e6600 fsb 1066 right, lol, im lost

[raknarius]

looking at the overclocking guide they reccomend fsb at 333, gives you a 3ghz speed overclocked, so why do they even advertise this proc at 1066fsb, i mean anyone setting fsb to 1066 (x9 would be 9ghz system, umm and hot as the dam sun.

im sure theres an answer for that question lol im a newb and stareing at the overclocking sun as blinded me to it.

thank you so damn much for that explanation. my head was just twisted with the intel fsb, didnt consider dividing by 4. I considered it times by 2 was close, just not close enough.

e6600 runs best at 1500fsb = 3.4ghz
