What does FSB mean?

[Trio33]

I was looking for a processor and I noticed FSB in which that certain processor was 533MHz what does it stand for?

Well...

It means how fast the ram can interact with the cpu. Now don't go thinking you can put in faster ram and get a faster fsb. The cpu has to support the speed.

Yeah everything he said, and BTW, it stands for Front Side Bus.

 

[ownage]

it stands for Front Side Bus. The 533 FBS is probably an Intel. Intel quad pumps their FSB so it is really 133mhz. Or DDR266
