Question Which is more important: higher ram frequency or higher front bus speed?

[HeartOfAdel]

I want to understand how fsb influences performance compared to higher ram frequencies. If you take 2133 with 266mhz front bus, it resultes in 1:8 ratio and 2200 with 200 fsb leads to 1:11. Assuming we run the same timings, which one is faster?

Most important question, what should I choose? 2400mhz cl10 with 266mhz fsb or 2600mhz with slightly looser timings and fsb 200?

It depends on what you are looking for, speed or stability?

Obviously the speed. There's no point in running it if it ain't stable.
