I would really like to get some sort of utility that will give me some solid feedback on stability, and this seemed like a great utility since it works quick relative to other solutions. Is there an earlier version that would work for 8 core systems using FBDIMMS? I have a feeling that the FBDIMMS with their extra error checking cycles that are causing the problem.
Hmm, try EVEREST and check your temps. I don't think air cooling can handle 4Ghz quadcores @ full linpack load. I have highend watercooling and still get 72°C on max load on ONE QX9650@4Ghz. (1.31vcore under max load, watertemo = 35°C).

So i HIGHLY doubt any air cooler can handle that kind of heat. (and you even have two cpus, which make ambient temps even higher)

This linpack test is really hardcore, so better get watercooling, or chilled watercooling.
