If a computer contains a pentium-4 with 800mhz FSB and DDR2 RAM that runs at 533mhz, would the BUS speed be limited to 533mhz?

For any data accessing the RAM yes. I am not sure if reduces traffic between other devices.

As far as matching FSB to DDR2 speed my recommendations are to skip DDR2 400 and opt for going with the following:
800MHz FSB = DDR2 533MHz ( Ideal ) or DDR2 400MHz ( Matched but Slow. ) 1066MHz FSB = DDR2 667 ( Good ) or DDR2 533MHz ( Matched )

Only in relationship of the processor to the ram, your actual processor speed will be what it says it is (the 800Mhz X The Multiplier)

Yes, your computer runs at your slowest FSB.
