Now.. I am sure some of you may have seen it.. BUT
273fsb (how's he get that??)..

I am not up real big on this a64 stuff yet (and I dont see many
questions
like this) so is it that the fsb of these new boards will go higher to
support later chips? ..
or am I just missing something..
I seem to have missed the 233, 266, and 300 fsb days being reach'd..
So how high will these boards go fsb wise.. OR since he was just pushing
the high fsb only to the CPU then is that why it could go so high..

Just looking for feedback is all ..

"With that said, see what can be accomplished when scaling the multiplier
down and the FSB up while the PCI/AGP bus is locked to spec speeds."

So your saying that there is unlimited room for clockspeed with the pci/agp
bus's lock'd and the ram dividers keeping the speed sane?

I'm not sure what he was trying to say, but that wasn't it.:-)

could I have say a 600mhz fsb on this board.. I think that's where I was
going with it ..

No. I'm not sure what the new chipsets will do, but I'm sure it's not
going to go that high or anywhere close to it. 300 maybe, but I'd have
my doubts about that. And there's other factors to consider too.
