FSB vs Motherboard speed

[GreenBudda]

I am planning a sysytem and I think I am thoughly confused about the FSB speed. If I am considering a AMD with 266MHz FSB, then I only need the motherboard speed to be 133MHz if I use DDRRAM? Can I use a 266MHz board and 266 MHz SDRAM? or is that only an option with the newer 333MHz FSB AMD chip that the Anandtech article was talking about having memory sync with 333MHz SDRAM? Thanks

I'd suggest getting a 2500+ and a motherboard (nforce2 comes to mind) that supports at least ddr333 and at least 256Mb of pc2700 memory. that combo is the best bang for the buck at the current prices. (especially if you opt to overclock your processor in the future)
