FSB stands for front side bus. It's the "information highway" between the CPU and the other hardware components, like the hard drive. It's bi-directional, too.

How is CPU speed calculated?

CPU speed is calculated off of the Front Side Bus (FSB) speed and the CPU Multiplier. Don't confuse HyperTransport (HT) or Quad Data Rate (QDR, aka Quad Pumping) with FSB. HyperTransport and QDR have "replaced" FSB, but they too rely on the FSB. FSB was formerly used as a transport medium for data between the processor, memory and northbridge chipset and is now used more just as a reference clock frequency. FSB * Multiplier = CPU Speed For example, my Sempron 3400+ runs at 2.0 GHz with an 800MHz HyperTransport bus. It runs on a 200 MHz FSB bus and has a multiplier of 10. The HyperTransport multiplier is 4. 200 MHz FSB * 10x Multiplier = 2,000 MHz CPU 200 MHz FSB * 8x HT Multiplier = 800 MHz HyperTransport bus

Best CPU for Graphic Designers What matters most - Higher L2 Cash or Higher FSB?

Because of the needed calculation speed more L2 is better. More FSB would be better for presentation of 3D-Models or environment in realtime. But in rendering the GPU does not matter nor does the FSB. It is only L2 and RAM ! Because of the needed calculation speed more L2 is better.
