This question comes up every so often.
The 33mhz listing you see is related to your FSB and your PCI devices.
33 is the normal and Only setting for all new/newer MOBOs.
Older system using only either/or 66mhz FSB could/were jumpered to a bus
speed showing of 66mhz, which if you use your math, is still in actuallity 33mhz.
