    and also got some stuff of the 800 strap vs the 1066 one. Basically it looks like there may not be much difference at all. I was trying to hold as much constant as i could. the only real nod I would have to give the 800 is that it looks like it is faster on 3dmark06's cpu test then the 1066 strap

    the real interplay that is going on here is the fight between memory bandwidth and latency. bumping up the FSB has a HUGE impact on how much bandwidth you get. It looks like that bump is fighting against the higher latency on the 1066 strap and is very close to winning especially with pi times. i will be doing more. The hardest part is trying to find settings to compare CPU speed at different FSB and still get the same memory clocks.
