While I'm on a roll, I have a few questions about AMD's HyperTransport.

1. Why is it abbreviated LDT? What does LDT stand for?

2. Since the FSB doesn't exist on AMD platforms, why is the HyperTransport bus given ratings like 1000 MHz, 2000 MHz, and why does it say in some places \"2000 MT/s\" What does the T stand for in those places?

3. Why is it said sometimes that the FSB is 200 MHz? I thought that the CPU's integrated memory controller transfers data at the speed of the CPU? o_O

4. Um...I can't think of any more questions right now...I'll come back to this thread if I have more questions. =P

LDT stands for Lighting Data Transport, what HyperTransport originally was called before Intel introduced HyperThreading.

Um... I can't think of any answers right now - but I'll check back in if I do. Count on it!

nooooo! I need answers! Help me, please! ^_~

the 200mhz \"FSB\" is actually the HTT rate, which has a multiplier, much like a CPU, giving it a 2000mhz clock, much like a fsb multipleied with a multiplier gives a CPU its clock.

MT/sec, not to sure actually, google it
