I never ran 8GB long term mate, I only did some tests at start for n7 on request and that was only at 400FSB or such... better pm him to get more info...
But thing I have with giving advice in templates : use it as a starting point, it could work from the start but also could be unstable... I see many users pump so many volts into the NB. I dunno why coz I never had to run above 1.36, not even for 600FSB action with the E8500. Quads and loads of ram usually need more Nb voltage and a bit more FSB term then dual cores... mostly it will be up to proper GTL tuning to get it rockstable (keep it around +/-0.81 level, seemed to work for most users)...
I haven't touched these boards since the 15xx serie biosses... no idea what has changed for the good or the bad...
