FSB and lag

[chrisgritz]

K well, i am about to buy a comp here soon, i was looking at barebone kit.net they have amazing deals, and i was looking at the FSB speeds, i was wondering, does FSB have anything to do with lag? like if i have low FSB does it mean my games will lag or no? i was going to get a processor that had Dual 2.4 Ghz with 2000 Mhz of FSB but then i saw another processor they had that was Quad 2.2 Ghz but had 3600 Mhz of FSB, i know with the Dual 2.4 Ghz and 2000 Mhz FSB i can play the game i want which is Warhammer, but idk if i should spend the extra money into getting that extra fsb and quad core, cuz idk if fsb makes a difference or not, im also getting 4gbz 800 Mhz of ram and a 256mb graphics card thats supported by WAR and i know it will run it well, im just confused about the FSB part. Does FSB have anything to do with games? or what. Thanks in advance!

FSB has nothing to do with games, or even really speed in general. do you mind posting a budget? the two processors your talking about are made by AMD (i can tell by the FSB speeds, Intel uses very different ones.)

the reason i ask is because it would be much easier to have us show you a nice computer or parts to build one.
