to me that 88 code is a dfi bonus price you pay for a good board
i found that if you set on plain aggressive setting the gskill clock higher
n maybe you need to bumb nb lots of stress runnin 8 gigs @ high clocks
My X38 doesn't run G.Skills it's a Q6600 with OCZ Flex all on stock. But bumping vNB and Vdimm didn't help.

I was able to solve the cold boot CODE 88 problem this weekend. So far I turned the power off the office twice since Sunday and it's all good.

Solution was to re-flash bios 2 times with the same BIOS, followed by a long CMOS clear with the battery out.

Don't ask me how did I get to this methodology all I know it worked.
