I had 3 of those boards. 2 of them would wall at 217bclk, that last one would do 250bclk. I have used the p6x58 bios as well as the p6t ws bios to gain features that I wanted that the stock p6t del board didnt have.
slow mode will basically kill everything 3d for performance, but there are gains to be had in 2d testing. just know that not all bios flashes go well, as I did get corruption a couple times with that board. but had no problems putting the stock bios on a bootable flash drive and having it fix itself
