I am not sure how safe it is to do this. but I hear people are having problems at like 330 fsb. I had the same problem with E6300 and DS3. adding volts, changing timings, and what ever else I could think of wouldn't help. As soon as I started up memtest at that freq it would give me lots of errors. Then I decided to try 360 fsb, booted into memtest and everything ran fine, no errors, ran through a couple full tests. went into windows tried out dual prime95, and everything ran great.
Only things I was worried about then was how hot the northbridge was getting. Decided to drop it back down to 320 untill I get a NB fan. I noticed that the sides of the stock heatsink are curled over so you could get some sort of clip and a fan thats the corrent size and just clip it onto the heatsink. I tried it with a slightly larger fan, seemed to do good with temps. But I was only able to clip on one side, so after bringing fsb back down to 320 took it off( untill I get correct size fan). Tried up to 400 fsb, and everything was still running great, no errors, still running voltages I was running at 320, and at cas 4. But then my cpu under dual prime 95 was giving me 52-55C in easy tune, 60-64 in coretemp. I am not sure how those temps are, thought I may need to get a good heatsink for my cpu if I wanted to go higher.
