rddave, maybe I'm missing someting, but I think you're being unrealistic about your fsb with either the qx6850 or qx9650. Certainly for a 24/7 stable setup.
The point of the QX's is that their multipliers are unlocked. You could try instead 10x400, 445 x 9 or 420 x 9.5 even.
If you want high FSBs then the dual cores or possibly the newer revision quads like the Q9650 are a better choice.
Just a thought

VoodooProphetII, I wasn't commenting on your post sorry. Just sharing some observations. If it helps thoughDon't know if you commented on my post, but thanks in any case. I will try to up the vcore and see what happens. And I'll up the VTT a bit more maybe 1.4 or maybe a bit higher and see if it will help.
I still need to put the QX9650 in and see if I can get 450FSB stable.
I wouldn't think you need 1.4 VTT for 450FSB. 1.35 should be enough. In fact nearer the beginning of this thread Eternal Fantasy posted settings for a Quad at 450fsb.
Is that power supply of your's going to be up to the job? A GTX280 and QX9650?
