    Question How come scan are doing this?...

    How come scan have bundles like this in the today only offers:

    Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 or E6750, 1333MHz FSB + Abit AB9 iP965

    Surely people want to buy a mobo that has a 1333MHz FSB if they get either of those cpus?

    But does it run them at 1333MHz? or downclocked at 1066MHz?

    If it does run at 1333MHz, then what is the advantage to getting a iP35 mobo with the same features?

    it runs them at 1333fsb (or higher if overclocked).
    better memory controller, newer southbridge, cooler chipset, better overclocking.
