Building a new PC; descriptions of speed

Post by Bibin »

I'm thinking of getting http://www.intel.com/products/motherboa ... /index.htm , along with an Intel Core 2 Quad Processor from http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... -_-NA-_-NA . I'm wondering; where can I found out what clock speed this will run at? If it's analogous to the FSB, which has a maximum of about 1.4GHZ, then I am certainly not getting this board, as 1.4GHZ is somewhat pathetic.

Holy long URLs, Batman!

The processor will run at 2.4 ghz.

Last time I checked, 1333 mhz is damn fast for a FSB, most likely the top of the line.

Yep. The computer we just built for my friend has a Core 2 Duo with a 1333Mhz FSB, and it's really speedy. (vs my desktop with a 133Mhz FSB :lol: :()
