ASUS P5W DH - Problems + Fixes Thread

[MarcusTaz]

Anyone have a quad running on this board? I have Q6600 G0 on order and an old revision P5W DH, with the lower MCH voltage options. I would be happy with 3.6 ghz, so around 400 FSB, doubt I'll be able to get higher without the higher MCH. I don't really want to buy a P35 board with X38 around the corner...

I have a Q6600 and the best I can get is :

378 x9 3.4 Ghz stable @ 1.475 vcore

ram running @ 1:1 756mhz

FSB term voltage 1.40
MCH 1.75

I can get it to 395 FSB and the mem to 6400 just about 800mhz @ 1:1 but I have to put in 1.60 (this board like 1.54) on the Vcore and the proc gets a bit to hot pusing 70c on OCCT, above the 65.. but as soon as I punch in 400fsb, BSOD even if I get into windows it is extremely unstable...
