The Hypertransport for your X2 6000 is stock 1000/2000mhz. Raising your Hypertransport doesnt increase your performance because its not using anywhere near the entire bandwidth of the Bus and most boards wont take to much over 1050/1075 without going unstable. Its tied to your boards bus speeed of 200mhz X5 = 1000Mhz. So if your overclocking and raising the Bus after a certain point you need to bump the Hypertransport multiplyer back to X4 or even X3.
Long story short, it give the processor the ability to communicate with devices on the board and bypass the Bus/ Northbridge chip. Plus if you have a dual socket or more motherboard it alows the CPUs to communicate directly to each other instead of transfering data through the FSB of the northbridge chip.
