if you say push your fsb to 110mhz, does it overclock everything else like the video card and sound card, nic, etc. because of their raised speeds? like my voodoo3 2000pci runs at a default 143mhz, if i changed the fsb, would the voodoo run faster? thanx
 
It woudln't actually raise the speed of the card itself, but the speed at which the card communicates to the mobo with (the PCI slot's speed)
Normally the PCI bus runs at 100fsb divided by 3 = 33.3mhz
Change that to 110fsb divided and you get 36.6mhz

Your voodoo still runs at it's 143mhz, but the communication speed is quicker (because you overclocked) and that helps out a bit in speed, especially with a PCI video card.
