Consider the following:
Every single AMD64 uses an intergrated memory controller which translates into the fact that there is no longer a direct reliance on FSB speed for memory bandwidth as there is no communication required between a north bridge anymore. Therefore, all AMD64s operate at 6.4gb/sec I/O bandwidth
Every single AMD64 still uses the default 200MHz memory bus speed regardless of whether it is the 3000+ running at 1.8GHz or the FX-57 running at 2.8GHz...therefore if you were able to push a 3000+ up to 2.8Ghz while running your memory on a divider to force the memory bus to remain at 200MHz, you would still have a CPU roughly equal to an FX-57 regardless of no memory bandwidth increase
While it is true that increasing memory bus speed will in turn increase bandwidth and overall performance, the AMD64 architecture is built in a fashion that your I/O bandwidth is no longer crippled by relying on a link between your CPU and a seperate memory controller. Furthermore, a faster frequency CPU still translates into a higher flop rate which in turn leads to faster processing regardless of memory bandwidth
