If you are aiming for 3,6 you should consider to run FSB 450 and RAM at 1800 (CAS 7, tRD6), itīs gonna be a pretty awesome 24/7 setup.
I can get by with 425 FSB, the multiplier on my Q9550 is 8.5, 425 * 8.5 = 3612, which means the RAM is 425 * 4 (for DDR3) = 1700. Also my Q9550 is the E0 stepping CPU, I don't know if that means it runs cooler or not.
