I checked out my system with cpu-id, and i came across stuff that i dont realy know is correct or not. I have two screenshots. The first one is my ram. IT is pc2700 333mhz, but under frequency it only says 166mhz. Shouldn't it be at 333mhz or am i just wrong. Also for my cpu the fsb says 166mhz. Shouldn't that be 333mhz also since it is a sA sempron 2800+. I am just not clear on this. Can someone look at my screenshots and help me out. thanks i ahve been trying to figure this out for about a week now.

Since it's DDR it can do 2 things at once. Hence the name Double Data Rate. So DDR333 (PC2700) = 166 * 2.

I believe the same goes with the FSB. AMD does 2 processes at once, so a 333mhz FSB = 166 * 2. Intel does something similar only 4 processes at once. 800mhz FSB = 200 * 4.
