Can anyone find me a link with the specs listed for an Intel i7-720QM processor, mainly the FSB speed, GT/s, and GFLOPS?

I7-720QM... that's a mobile processor, if I remember correctly, it has 1.6 GHZ. Yep, base speed is 1.6 GHZ.

Intel has a good overview of this processor here: http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=43122

Reading up on it, it does not use FSB - It communicates via something called "Quick Path Interconnect(QPI)".

Only i7-9xx and the upcoming i9 has QPI. All lower nehalems substitute the QPI and the 3rd channel DDR3 with 16 lanes of PCI-E 2.0 plus a DMI bus. The DMI bus has 10Gbps bidirectional bandwidth and is used to connect to a south bridge.

The list on Wikipedia happens to be pretty clear.
