Just put together mine and missus new rig consisting of the following

Gigabyte X48-DS5
3GB PC6400 Geil ULL
Sapphire 4890
E8400 + AF7 Pro

After much confusion about how to OC this mobo i finnaly got my E8400 to go to 3.852Ghz (9x425FSB @ 1.264V)
Prime stable 24 hours
Temps under load 51deg C
Temps Idle 40deg C
Room temps around 24 celcius

Going to order some decent ram and see if i can get past 4Ghz :)
 
That geil will run at 1066 no issues at 5,5,5,15 or 18 change the strap to under clock it then see if your cpu goes any higher :)

I have 2 stick runing alongside my OCZ platinimum at 1033 5,5,5,14 24/7 stable folding :)
