Question on AMD's comment on Intel Core 2 DUo

[Geoff]

Oh?
The new chips dont' have an FSB? Can you tell me which ones?

Also, I'm not comprehending, if they dont' have an FSB, then how do the signals travel?

I've always liken an FSB to a road and a signal to a car. IF there is no road, how does the car travel?

I know none of the Athlon 64's, X2's, or other varients of those chips don't have an FSB, but i'm not sure about the previous models.

AMD doesn't have an FSB, but it has something very similar, which they call Hyper-Transport Technology (HTT).

Oh I see...well thats cool..

Can you tell me what are the advantages that HTT has over the FSB?
