I'm doing an experimental build and I was trying to match CPU with Motherboards. So it is my understanding that Hyper Transport is AMD terminology and FSB is intel terminology.  Here is a link to the two items:

CPU:

Motherboard:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16813131603

Despite if you think the two aren't the greatest to match-up, are they compatible?

The CPU has a Hyper Transport of 4,000MHz and the Motherboard has a FSB 2600MHz Hyper Transport (5200 MT/s)

I'm really pondering if the CPU is already doubled, thus should be read at 2,000Mhz(FSB) and having the Motherboard at 2,600Mhz.

Any insight would be appreciated!

I am waiting for the result of combination of these two.
