I've been an owner of a P5W and e6400 for quite a while already. I haven't had much time to benchmark and OC testing when I first got my components, which is about 5-6 months ago. The full rig is as follows:
Asus P5W w/ 1101 BIOS
Mushkin Redline XP1000 @ 3-4-3-10
E6400 @ 3.2ghz running at 400FSB 1:1
My problem is that I have no way of going over 400 FSB no matter how hard I try. Orthos fails within the first 3 second. I've relaxed my RAM to 5-5-5-12, bump the voltage to the board's max of 2.4Vdimm and my e6400 to 1.5V. I mean I am happy with over a 1 gig overclock, but I am a bit disappointed that most people can get around 420-430FSB on this board until they hit a wall. I find it hard to believe that I hit a brick wall on 400FSB. I'm beginning to think that my e6400 may have been from the bad batch? It is a L624A86. Any input would be appreciated.
