Increasing the Front Side Bus makes everything go faster. If you have your FSB set at 100 your pci bus is only 25. If you bump that FSB up to 133 though, your pci bus is going to go at 33.25. Almost a 25% gain in speed there alone. Your memory clock is faster, so that data passing through it can be read/written much quicker. FSB serves many purposes.
I am running at 142 right now. I don't dare take it any higher until I get some fans. Then maybe I'll bo up to 150.
