D975XBX2 bus clock running at 266 Mhz ???

Just ran Belarc advisor and that is what it says the bus clock speed is: 266Mhz. Is that normal for this board?? and isn't it possible to run that a faster speed or is that different from front side bus speed which is supposed to be able to run at 800 or 1066 Mhz.... ????? How can i find out what the front side bus is running at??? Now that I have been up and running for a couple of weeks I want to be sure that I have settings correct in the BIOS.
Thanks

Marty-

The FSB is quad pumped, so 266MHz x 4 = 1066MHz. I'm currently running mine at 300MHz x 4 = 1200MHz with no problems, and played around a little with 333MHz x 4 = 1333MHz which seemed OK, too.
