Hi all! So i'm swallowing my pride and now seeking help... I want to get 3.2GHz (400x8) or 3.4GHz (378x9), but I can't seem to stabilize at 3.2GHz on my new ASUS P5Q deluxe (used to get 3.2GHz @ 1.44v on MSI P45 Plat). Right now here are my settings at 3GHz:

Settings above are 7 hrs prime95 & 20 runs of LinX (64bit) stable... trouble is passing 3GHz.. want to to stabilize setting for 3.2GHz or 3.4GHz.. I've tried upping voltage up to 1.43v but still no go.. tried upping NB & FSB term to 1.38, still no go.. HALP ME
Btw, temps are somewhat ok as long as cpu vcore doesn't go above 1.5v
