Have you done a Prime95 run to test for stability? If not, you should probably give that a try.

I would try more volts.

FAH stable > Prime stable. FAH will find flaws in your OC that most other software will not. I usually use Prime just to get in the ballpark, go up one tick on vcore, then expect to adjust some while folding.
