An AMD processor with a FSB of 400mhz running a stick of PC3200/400Mhz ram the FSB is equal to the Fsb of the cpu which means running 2 sticks of PC3200/400Mhz ram in dual channel mode would make the bandwith of the ram 800mhz which is good for an 800 FSB Pentium but uslesss on a 400 FSB AMD Cpu, so its useless on an AMD Cpu but good on a Pentium
