So I just received my i7 stuff, and getting ready to build it. I just wanted to get a thread started with some questions first, for all the new terms with the i7's in the BIOS I need to know, I have seen "BCLK", "QPI" and others thrown around here in the past few weeks, that I haven't seen in the last gen chips (Core 2 quad) Im guessing these mostly have to do with the hyper-threading and front side bus speeds, etc, or no?

Just bring me up to speed with these new terms, and how they affect me when overclocking.

Thanks!

Frank
