Hi!
Can anyone help me solve this confusion?
(sorry about my bad english )
I'm using a Pentium 4 @ 1.7 GHz. wiht 400 MHz. FSB
I have this motherboard: Intel Desktop Board D845GLLY
And the specs are:
This MotherBoard is designed for Celeron and Pentium 4 processors
The FSB is 400 MHz.
And uses PC133 SDRAM (It's TRUE... ordinary SDRAM, NOT DDR!!!!)
HOW THE HELL CAN IT BE???
I've read in some web pages that the Pentium 4 uses a FSB with one of the following speeds:
Pentium 4 A : 400 Mhz. FSB Speed = 4 (quad pumping) x 100 MHz. (System clock speed)
Pentium 4 B : 533 Mhz. FSB Speed = 4 (quad pumping) x 133 MHz. (System clock speed)
Pentium 4 C : 800 Mhz. FSB Speed = 4 (quad pumping) x 200 MHz. (System clock speed)
But I have a few questions:
where in the hell the system clock is?
on the motherboard maybe?
Then, How the RAM can operate at a different speed?
the ram has its own clock?
This question remembers me this other:
I've read that RAMBUS RIMM is is only double-pumped but it's very fast,
so it does 2 cycles when the FSB does 1 and in this way compensate the difference.
Again the same question:
How the RAM can operate at a different speed?
the ram has its own clock?
Why they say "The processor have the 400 MHz FSB?
the processor has its own clock or it's the same one of the MotherBoard?
the processor could be at different FSB speed than the MotherBoard?
My MotherBoard was designed like this by some kind of STUPID guy or what?
there is a huge bottleneck in my system?
THANX
