Dual core means 2 processing cores/dies on one chip. This is just like two processors because the die is really where data is processed.

2. how fast will this run? ghz
|
It runs at 2.2 GHz, from the research I've done. Don't let this fool you, GHz aren't everything. This is about the equivalent of a dual core 3.4 GHz Pentium 4. It performs a lot more operations per clock cycle.

3. fsb, what exactly does it do......
|
FSB stands for Front Side Bus, and is a measurement of how fast the processor communicates with the chipset and ram. The more, the better. AMD does this well, Intel's FSB sometimes bottlenecks RAM performance, I like AMD's integrated memory controller, kind of, except the architecture really needs to be redesigned for every new memory type.
Hope this helps, any more questions, please feel free to ask, I'll help as much as I can.
