noob cpu & fsb question

I'm setting up my my new system (updating from a k6 system finally) and have a question: What do I set the FSB and multipler to for basic setting (non-overclocked, for now)? The specs on newegg say it's FSB is 266MHz, so do I set it at that with a multipler of 6.5? or do I have things wrong? Thanks!

System specs:
Abit NF7-S v2.0
AMD XP-Mobile 2400+
ThermalRight SI-97 heatsink
Panaflo 92mm L1B
ArticSilver5
Kingston 512MB PC3200 ram x2
GF3 Ti200 card (too be replaced soon)
Aopen DVD-ROM
NEC 3500A DVD writer
generic FDD
WD HDD
Antek SLK3200 BQE case

PS I'm thinking of getting an ATI X800XL card, would that be over kill?
 
It should automatically default to it's standard clocks. An ATI x800XL would be *way* overkill for that system. I doubt your proc will be able to feed it enough information to keep it running at it's maximum potential.
