having hit a wall guys not sure if im doing something wrong :s

system specs:
e6400 2.13 @ 3ghz
G.Skill 2GB DDR2 HZ PC2-6400C4 @ 750
asus p5w dh deluxe

the problem i have is i cant seem to work out away of getting 800+ mhz from ram without lowing fsb speed/cpu.

and was woundering am i missing some setting here or something ?

all at stock volts.
 
set ram to 1:1 400x8 = 3.2 ghz and 800 mhz ram and so on.
If no work try 401 x 8 and so on it may be a fsb hole.

FSB Wall at low fsb around 300 - Disable Hyperpath 3 in the Chipset section of the bios. [Credit - lawrywild]

FSB Wall at around 360-370 fsb - Enable SPD timings option in Chipset section of bios.

i allready had those options turned off.

but it seems the only way i can get it to run stable at 400/3.2 is to max out the mch voltage.

allso what is the so called safe voltage of a e6400 ?
 
read that post link in full you have a fsb hole.
i wouldn't go much above 1.5 volts to be safe unless you are sure.
