I have started looking into a new Core 2 Duo based pc and am a bit confused as to why when all the Core 2 Duo's listed on the site have a FSB of 1066 Mhz, that all the bundles only come with 800 Mhz Ram.

Surely you would want the RAM at the same speed as the FSB otherwise you are introducing a bottleneck?
 
So if you run the PC 6400 RAM at stock in conjunction with E6700 core 2 duo, what frontside bus do I end up.

As with my current rig a P4 c 3 Ghz with PC3200 ram I have an 800 Mhz FSB which I thing is 200 mhz x 4. So how does this translate to core 2 duo.
