Well folks, this is how i've made out

Real easy to hit 3.6 (9*400) w a 1800mhz running 7,7,7,14 2t everything else auto. Tcase temps idle - mid to high 20's. Load high 30's. 3dMark96 - 18472. All really stable.

Now comes the next step - I'm trying to get a rock solid stable 3.8 w/ 1900 - 2000 mhz ram. Then it might be worth posting pics...lol

Any ideas are worth a try.

Thanks guys for all the help. This is a blast!!
