The FB-Dimm AMB buffer provides the extra delay equivalent to a fsb.

Yes mas so how does a Nehalem with a IMC using FB-Dimm and no FSB end up no better than a C2D with a FSB, a North Bridge and FB-Dimm? Both have FB-Dimm while only one has the FSB (which may require arbitration) a NB and a FB-Dimm. How can you say the two are equivalent?
