Questions about front side bus

[chriscala]

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
A.M.D anthlon 64 x2 7750 2.7ghz here's the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6819103686

FSB Is different from your CPU

Your MOBO isn't being slowed down.

If you have doubts look for the latest BIOS update.

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.
