6700 /P5W DH Deluxe User wall at 356ish FSB "How to overcome"

Just a note:

I was hitting a wall at 356 FSB with the Asus P5W DH Deluxe and the Conroe 6700. By simple Disabling "Hyperpath 3" in the chipset section I was able to hit 390FSB

Hyperpath is a well-known bios item to disable if OCing to any degree - glad you got passed 356.

Is your 6700 Orthos / dual Prime stable at 390 FSB (using 10x multi), or are you just testing RAM / FSB limits, benching Superpi, etc.?

If it is, (you got a special chip if so) what vcore (bios and actual) does it need, and what type of cooling are you running.

EDIT: Nevermind - I see you've got a compressor involved.

Thanks

No it is not the special one, unfortunately. Not stable at 390 but stable at 386.
