OK, I'm a little lost here. I have new Asus P5W-DH Deluxe with E6600.
My memory is old Corsair TWINX PC5400 rated at 675mhz (4X512Mb). How do I setup board to modestly overclock (if it's possible at all). I don't need anything extreme, just to get something extra for free.......
Basically I need to know FSB, ratios.......

Thanks in advance.

Your board is one of the best boards for overclocking...

Try your luck....Press F2 or Delete to enter the Bios and look for FSB Setting, frequency or Speed. Set it to 300FSB and set the RAM to 2X or 533mhz or 2.0.

That should bring you up to 2.7ghz.

if it works, push it a little more and se the FSB to 335mhz for a 3.0ghz.

You might be able to get away with this without any voltage adjustments.

Try it and report back!
