Mine doesn't run stable at 3.6 either I've tried up to 1.475v. 8x400 is a snap @ 1.4125 but 9X400 probably won't work without 1.5v or more.
my q6600 isn't the best chip
3.2 works pretty good though.
EDIT:
I had a GA-965p-DS3 and even with Watercooling I was never able to top 9X333 stable on it. I was able to get an E6600 to 8X400 so it might just be my board or possibly memory. When I put the same q6600 in an EVGA 780i with some 800Mhz memory I was able to hit 3.2Ghz with little effort, and as you can tell by my Vcore this is a hot, Voltage hungry q6600.
I bet what was holding me back on the old board was my 667Mhz memory trying to run 800+ considering you're having no trouble running 8X400FSB with the quad and i couldn't get it to run that to save my life.
