Do I have this right? (Pentium D overclocking)

I'm a bit confused with the process of overclocking, but i'll ask my question :)

The Pentium D I have has an FSB of 533MHz, if its running at 2.66GHz Does that mean that it is 533MHz x 5(ish) = 2.66MHz?

I can't check it in the Bios, is there any other way?
 
No, the speed of the processor is calculated like this.
the FSB Not 533 yours is 133 times the multiplier.
like in my processor a Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz 533
133*21 = 2793

Your FSB is 133MHz and your multiplier is 20.

133 x 20 = 2660

Because the chip is quad pumped, the effective bus speed is 533 MHz (133 x 4).
