333 MHz (QDR) ;) (but what a comparence eh? :P --> 34 x 100 (BCLK) <--> 9 x 333(FSB QDR ;) We shouldn't forget your nice and independent 5GT/s DMI...my CPU works with a 1333 MHz effective FSB speed and is strongly related to the DRAM frequency...fortunately I have a 1:1 DRAM:FSB :) But ehh, this all wasn't meant to be serious as you will know :P Your i7 is a much better 'talker' ;) (let's not get to cryptical ;)

@hasnanss1: yeah, it's the unlocked '560' and now you have got a nice quad core ;) But why are you actually unsure about it? At least, that's what you said on the 'B60' CPU page ;) --> http://game-debate.com/hardware/index.php?pid=881&cpu=Phenom%20II%20X4%20B60 (TeroMarsu and I gave a reaction on your thoughts ;)
