I heard it was better to match up the FSB of the cpu and ram in bios rather than in windows. For example, a amd 64 bit processor has a 800mhz fsb when active in windows, divide the FSB by 4 and you get the bios FSB of the processor and it is 200mhz. 400mhz ram FSB that is DDR is divided by 2 and the ram bios speed will be 200hhz, therefore you have the ram and processor FSB now in sync in bios 200:200.
But I would think that the higher the ram fsb, the better. Espeicailly since ther in no ram that has a speed of 800mhz yet. Would it be better to just get the fastest ram possible rather than matching the cpu and ram's FSB BIOS speed?
