CryptiK,
Congrats on the new CPU. It looks good, maybe a 4.3 - 4.4GHz for 24/7 doable there. 4.2GHz is for sure, possible with reasonable volts / temps.
Man, then I really have no idea why are you having thoses crashes.
If your mem is not the problem, and you are at 1.45vNB so the NB is not the problem too. Your VCC and VTT are fine too. PLL too. You are not a very high FSB / CPU clock too (considering your Q9650). You should be stable.
I can only think, that you don't have your Maximus II Formula tunned the right. Probably the values you have for CPU GTL's, NB GTL, Skews, References are not the right ones for you. You just think they are fine, but they are not, and they are holding you back. That is the only thing I can think off. Maybe you should start from zero, and run the tests the proper way to really fine tune your mobo.
