E6600 Retail + Asus P5W DH only 200Mhz OC!

i am wondering if this B2 stepping to correct for Raid 5 utilization has screwed the pooch for overclocking.

Ive seen some ES chips which are stepping 5 with rev b2 I wonder how they clock.

I am happy with FSB and CPU ocing, BUT i am not happy with my memory speed, i have great 1100+ memories but i can run them only at 800 ... it is my problem ...

just thought I would interject a little more on this subject.

I just read a post claiming WR at cas3 on badaxe, now to hit cas3 on badaxe at 1100+ you need to be on the 1333 strap, as i explained this allows the memory controller to run the ram at much higher speeds and lower latency but overall the performance will suck...so in reality the WR is worthless.

If you really want to run memory ~1100MHz with 400FSB, try Badaxe. I guarantee you the performance will be lower than 800MHz 1:1 on your board.
