Ok, I'm no apple fan, but I'm just wondering if anyone knows the details about the G5's 1 Ghz bus.
Intel's bus is 200 Mhz 'Quad Pumped' to get their 800 Mhz number and Amd's bus is 200 Mhz doubled to get their 400 value.
Does anyone know what the G5's 1 Ghz bus actually is? Do they work the same way and 'pump' it to get a bigger value? I have no idea how they work but it would seem stupid to have an actual 1 Ghz bus and a multiplier of 2 to get the 2 Ghz processor (I'm assuming they work the same way with fsb and multiplier). I'm guessing maybe a 250 Mhz bus??
And I'll just finish off by saying again that I'm not a big apple fan, so please don't throw large objects at me. I'm just curious and I'd be afraid to post on an apple message board....yikes...
Thanks
