Will a 533 fsb work on my mobo

Here is my question all. I am wanting to beef up my processor. I currently have a 1.5 p4 in my system and I want to put a 2.4 in it (the most my mobo will support). My mobo is an AB th711 mobo with 400 fsb. The fsb on the chip is 533 fsb. Will the buss on my mobo scale it down to 400 or will I have a conflict with it? I think it will scale it down kinda like what it does with memory but I want to be sure. Thanks for all the help guys. Bart
