help: which is the fast processor

[apj101]

Theres still a internal CPU FSB of 200MHZ on the processor.

but then that would be an internal clock, and not fsb

Ha Ha The FSB plus the multiplier togather make the internal clock.

that's the net clock, and its not plus
the internal memory clock of which you refer relates to the net speed and the divider. It is not the same as an fsb

 

[StrangleHold]

I know what you mean Your technically right, since its been removed from the northbridge its more of a CPU internal bus speed instead of a FSB

 

[PC eye]

Omega is correct - A64s & X2s don't have a FSB:

Good one there buddy! I have another link that goes into explaining just what hyperthreading is found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthreading

Thats true to a point but backward, theres no FSB on Athlon 64 (motherboards) northbridge chip! Theres still a internal CPU FSB of 200MHZ on the processor. All HT really does is allow the processor to bypass the northbridge. The FSB is still there its just been moved from the northbridge chip control to intergated into the CPU itself, HT allows the CPU to bypass the northbridge to communicate to the other buses-memory-PCI-PCI-e

The fsb is what connects the cpu to the Northbridge. It's systems that have L2 and L3 memory caches that bypass the northbridge by what is called the BSB or back side bus. That actually sees faster speeds there.

it depends. just make sure not to rate processor speed by clock speed. with AMD go with the little xxxx+ thing . its cuz AMD CPUs can process more per clock than Intel, which Intel makes up for it in faster clock speeds. also Intel is better at multithreaded apps and AMD is better at single threaded intensive apps. Intel is has the better price/performance ratio too .

FSB and HTT have absolutely nothing to do with Hyperthreading. Why are you linking to HT?

I would never buy another Intel......cept the Core 2 Duo

I didnt like the Pentium series, they were ok, but i think AMD had them beat.

That has nothing to do with what we were talking about

how bout we change the name FSB on all cpus to External Clock and the ghz speeds (i think they are core clock) to be renamed Internal Clock.

Do i have that right or is it backwards? I believe thats what they USED to be called, before all this high tech mumbo jumbo threw everyone off.

So mine would be Internal Clock of 2ghz and External Clock of 200mhz.

I wouldn't count on that info much. I multitask here with a sibgle cored AMD cpu without problems. I'll probably end with a quad core model on the next build.

First off that wasn't addressed to you. The second is I'm not the one who keeps bringing that up.

That has a bearing on your continual references to HT.
