This is quoted from some PM's I had with another member, and we feel it needs more explaining.
Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Very nice, I never FSB clocked so much before. This new DFI LP NF2 B I got last week is screaming at 12x200 out of the box. PCI and AGP locks are key, but if those never raise, why would you want to up FSB much over 200?

FSB = faster SYSTEM performance.
makes everything faster is what it does.
HDD/ vid/ -system bus is what is is.
how fast things are moving between each other.
got this running @ 11x 200 now.
with low memory timings too!
Ya got a good board there! 12x 200 is sweet.
I just wanted to reach 200 for the performance gain myself.

But, if the PCI and AGP are locked at 33/66, then how is there faster system performance when those 2 busses ARE the system?

Good point.
From what I can tell, looking at a brake down of a system schematic;
the cpu is the starting point, runs through the North bridge to the AGP & Memory & runs through everything else, having the PCI system being one of the last it reaches.
So PCI is gonna run@ 33mhz.
AGP runs @ 66.
or should I say proccess' its functions at that speed.
when it sends the info it is done processing,
It transmits(?) that info @ a faster rate.
Which is held in the memory until used.
I think.
This might need to be posed & discussed a bit further.
Knowing how & why is 1/2 the battle.
Understanding information is power.
Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks.
