I can't even get past DET DRAM with the following settings.
The X3350 is a Q9450 variant for the server right? If so, there's your answer. It's almost impossible to run these chips at those fsb rates even with extreme cooling; unless you got a cherry chip. I can go all the way 488 (stable) but it takes too much VFSB, and VNB to get stable. If you really got balls, give it 1.5+ on VFSB and 1.7+ on the NB. I run my fsb at 1.5 for 3.8Ghz.
