RAM and FSB Explain.

[TeamMyk]

What is a FSB?
Is that part of the proccessor or part of the motherboard?
What does a FSB do?
Does a FSB limit the speed of RAM you can put in it?
Does the RAM have to be syncronus to the FSB in speed?
What type of performace difference is there between 133, 100, 66?

Thanks.

Front Side Bus the speed (in mhz) which your your processor and memory work together @... each processor and memory stick operate together at this FSB speed which is determined @ the time of manufacture... the 3 "common" FSB's are 66 mhz, 100 mhz & 133 mhz
