Re: PC Wizard says my P4 6.2GHz FSB is 200 MHz.

Yes, you are misunderstanding it.
The FSB of the motherboard is correctly 200 MHz.
The P4 CPU is internally boosted 4x and runs at a bus speed of 800 MHz.


The motherboard FSB and the processor FSB (bus speed) run at the same speed of 800Mhz, when using a 200MHz clock, or else they wouldn't talk very well together, now would they?
