I actually have used a couple of PC's in my lifetime and do understand that
most AT-class and '386 machines run the processor faster than 8MHz.  But
please reread the question.  Does the BUS run at greater than 8MHz clock speed?

On very few machines these days does the processor clock speed equal the
expansion bus speed.
