Yes notguru, that's literally like asking if more RAM is better! 
To be fair though, there's such a thing as having too much RAM, like when you're running a 32-bit OS on a desktop with 12GB of RAM; you end up wasting around 8.75GB of RAM, since the max for 32-bit is 3.25.
Conversely, there's such a thing as too much FSB, as in the case of using a powerful motherboard to run a weaker CPU and slower RAM.
Hope this helps!
