Thanks FSB is the speed the CPU communicates with the northbridge, the chip right under or nearby the CPU, often with a heatsink on it. 166 is not too low, is exactly right for that CPU. Any other speed would be over or under clocking, something (based on your question) you should learn more about before attempting to do so. Dave |
