What's Your FSB?

[palmmann]

i have a 1.2ghz celery mobile, but it is not runnin yet, so my best running fsb is 33mhz or 66mhz from a old pentium

 

[gamerman4]

I got A64 so i dont got one but my HTT bus speed is at 250mhz with a HTT multi of 4 so 1000mhz HTT speed. Maybe a little more info than you needed.
Nice question Praetor, fun times with dumb minds (no offense to anyone)

 

[JFlo]

was 200 dunno w/ my new comp yet hasnt been built lol.

 

[apj101]

chuckle chuckle chuckle. Voted stock fsb.

 

[Bobo]

I voted 2GHz FSB. (actually I have no idea....FSB versus bus speed has always confused me cause the companies advertise the bus speed as the FSB speed)

 

[Jon Boy]

Ahaa after seaching the net I think I have found I have an 800mhz FSB. Is it any good?? and what does FSB actualy do exactely???

FSB is the speed with which components in your computer talk to each other. ( I don't know what components)

Nope. 800MHz is the marketing line, your is 800MHz equivalent (200MHz*4 signals per clock)

I voted 2GHz FSB

Also wrong You've got an A64 so any answer with *Hz on it isn't right.

I don't know what components

Pretty much all of them, unless your board has locks

 

[Jon Boy]

Ahh I see thanks Cromwell. I expect almost everybody on here has posted the wrong FSB then lol.

not everyone

 

[Jon Boy]

not everyone

haha rub it in why don't you lol. And well atleast I can say I wasn't as wrong as the people who thought they had a FSB and ran AMD 64 processors lol. Well I would of if I was given the chance and had one

 

[Cromewell]

Of 79, 24 possibly have it right. It's a common mistake and the A64 stuff makes it even easier for people who were told by sales folk what the FSB is to be wrong.

 

[Sophocles]

The new AMD 64's are all rated at 1000 Mhz frontside bus and in dual channel they're even further rated (I'm not sure I agree with it) as 2000 Mhz frontside bus. My frontside bus is at 1092 Mhz and since I also have dual channel memory running it can then be said that my frontside bus is 2184 Mhz.

 

[Sophocles]

I wanted to mention that AMD's HTT is (5X 200 which is its actual speed). Hyper transport and frontside bus essentially perform the same function except that HTT is on chip. But both are input/output through main memory.

 

[Praetor]

what the hell happened to praetor, havent seen him post in a good 2 couple of weeks, where is he?

Lets stay on topic

I bet praetor made this thread to see how many people think that an A64's FSB is 1000Mhz. An AMD actually doesnt have an FSB. (no offense penguin, lots of people make that mistake)

You mean like you?

the socket 939 is newer, and has a 1Ghz fsb vs the 754's 800Mhz.

 

[Geoff]

You mean like you?

I wasnt paying much attention to what i wrote, i meant to say that they have 1Ghz bus, which is because of the hypertransport.

With up to a 2000 MHz system bus using HyperTransport technology with up to 14.4 GB/sec total processor-to-system bandwidth

Well "no offence" to you either, does this fall under the "saving face" or the "i was too busy knocking on other people" category?

 

[Charles_Lee]

whats FSB??

 

[Bobo]

whats FSB??

Front Side Bus

it is the speed at which the components on the motherboard communicate with each other.

oh ic, thanks
