guys im bulding a new system.intel e7400 and phenome2 x2 550 are in my budget.im a moderate gamer.i don't do overclocking.motherboard for amd is cheper than intel.so i went for amd phenome2 x2 550.the product website says:
(Note) If you install AMD AM2 CPU on AM2 motherbord, the system bus speed will downgrade from HT3.0(5200 MT/s) to HT1.0(2000 MT/s) spec; however, the frequency of AM2 CPU will not be impacted.

this will slowdown the system performance in games?
