Okay so I was wondering, I'm seeing a large range of FSB speeds in laptops these days... Anywhere from 533MHz to 800MHz... My question is, what's too slow?
I notice that if you want a higher FSB speed, especially on laptops, you have to go up quite a few hundred in price. (From 533MHz to 800MHz is almost double the price in some cases... because models with a higher FSB tend to be more top of the line in all respects...)
I know that "too slow" is defined by what you're doing with the computer, but for moderate gaming and lots of 720p HD video playing (I like my anime fansubs... ^_^), what is "too slow"?
I have my own ideas about this but I wanted to hear everyone else's.
