Can someone please tell me how that would work? I think this wasn't explained clearly last time.

where'd you see taht? :huh:

I guess it would mean that the CPU has the fsb coded into it. :unsure:

Probably talking about the Athlon 64 CPU. They have the Northbridge integrated into the CPU which previously was done on the motherboard.

The northbridge links the processor (cpu) with the memory, vid card and other parts of teh computer. Normally this northbridge is a part of the motherboard.
VB1234 is saying that on Athlon 64 processors there is a built in northbridge instead of it being attached to the motherboard.

I saw the Integrated FSBs on the descriptions of AMD64s in newegg (insightful eh?)

Alright that's more like it.
I guess the above explanation would be right then.

Erm.. that means What I have on my computer sets the FSB on the chip?

It means nothing to worry about. The chip still acts the same as any other chip except that teh hardware is different. :huh:
