My question is about Front side bus I noticed my motherboard says it only has 1000 fsb. My cpu however says it has 3600.
What I want to know is
A.Is the cpu Front system bus truly 3600 cuz i see most motherboards have 2600fsb.
B.is my motherboard slowing down my cpu
c.When i update my motherboard what would i need as far as fsb to support that cpu or another one with equal or grater fsb.




my system is

fsb * multiplier = cpu speed, fsb is normaly 100, 133, 200Mhz depending on generation of processor.

Look up FSB on wikipedia, and follow it through to processor clockspeed and memory speeds.
