The bus between the processor and the main chipset will run at 200MHz (or thereabouts). The speed of the bus between the main chipset and the memory, PCI slots, etc. can/will be independent from the speed of the bus to the processor.
Especially their mobos! Their supports sucks ass, if you can even get through to talk to them...they don't even know the exact specs on all of their products. Back when I was not as wise as I am am now, I purchased a Tiger-Super7 barebones kit. Here's the website of the company that made the included mobo: http://www.visiontop.com.tw Needless to say, I'm not going to get any BIOS updates =-( My advice: get a brand-name mobo with nothing onboard. It's more expensive, but a much better value in the end. Your system will last 2-3 times as long.

Jeez...
Why not just put the mobos in the fridge and use it as a rack? =-) OC them machines...
...until the 8th or 9th service pack is released ;-)

Uh...vacuums suck, and sucking is one way of giving a quickie.
>Can you even get a INTEL CPU for $125?!?
Uhhh...yeah. A 450MHz one for 75$ (300A guaranteed to run at 450MHz!).
Maybe they're not that bad then if they're using Soyo boards now...I still don't like integrated sound/video though.
