The 2.4 or 2.4A uses the 400Mhz system bus. The 2.4B denotes the 533Mhz system bus. Some of them are the older generation, I would be sure to go with the B. HTH

its definitely worth getting the 533 version, it makes performance way higher.

if you overclock a 2.4B to 2.9Ghz, you get 161fsb
overclocking a 2.4A to 2.9 and you still dont get a 133 fsb
