And venturing farther under the hood, the speed and efficiency of the CPU itself depends to a considerable degree on the front-side bus that engineers have designed into the processing chip set ...

Depending on the motherboard and CPU, the system BIOS can feature special controls that adjust the motherboard's Front Side Bus speed and the processor's multiplier. The FSB speed and CPU ...

it will begin selling only CPUs with a self designed front side bus, a part vital to transfer data to and from the CPU to other components inside a computer. The company will not seek to extend an ...

It runs at 2.26 GHz and has a 12MB L2 cache and a 1,066-MHz front-side bus. Intel CPUs with locked multipliers like this one can still be overclocked by tweaking their front-side bus speed ...

AMD had also removed the front side bus from its CPU design, introducing an integrated, on-die memory controller, which reduced latency. The first Socket 754 Athlon 64 CPUs only supported single ...
