ive been thinking about buying a HP Pavilion dv5-1138tx (FZ940PA) from msy.

http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/au/ [...] 32031.html

I was wondering if the processor is 1066 MHz FSB, does that mean RAM of up to 1066 MHz can be used. Because as i understand it, FSB is like the link between processor and memory.
Most people might probably say I won't need the 1066Mhz, especially since i want to buy 2, but I do like things to run quickly and smoothly.

and also this laptop on MSY says the graphics card is a 9600 GS, whilst every other record besides MSY says this laptop has a 9600M GT. I can't even find the 9600 GS on the Nvidia website, only variations of it. Is the 9600 GS just a renamed model of another graphic card?

Thanks in advance

What makes you believe that 1066 Mhz memory will work? It looks like it uses 800 MHz memory only. http://www.ramcity.com.au/system/52062.htm

According to HP, the graphics subsystem is a NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT: http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/au/ [...] 1002_AUEN.
