Default 800MHz DDR2 single channel vs 667MHz DDR2 dual channel...

Hi everyones...thanks to read.

Two basic questions i could not get an answer after 1 hour of checking old
posts:

1- Since most Pentiums 4 CPUs sold are with a 800MHZ FSB, it is correct to
assume that the ram will always be a bottleneck unless i use the newer
800MHz DDR module?

2- If i use two 667MHz matched pair modules in dual channel, will the ram
fsb will still be a bottleneck compared to the 800MHz cpu fsb?

TIA for your reply.
