Prime95 errors help

I'm trying to get my Q6600 stable at 3.5Ghz (390 x 9)

After 12 mins I got this error

FATAL ERROR: Final result was DBA2CF9F, expected: 3247CE82.

So I upped Vcore to 1.475 after 12 mins I got this error

FATAL ERROR: Resulting sum was 4.195114727355791e+037, expected: 4.195114727355842e+037

So I upped Vcore to 1.48 and again after 12 mins I got this error

FATAL ERROR: Resulting sum was 4.493122134502993e+038, expected: 4.49312213450305e+038

What do these errors mean? Is it Vcore causing them?

Thanks

No one know on this? Should I just try more vcore?

My mobo is Gigabyte DS3 Rev 1, Chipset volts are already at +0.2

I have upped the Vcore again, its 1 away from 1.5v now, reading 1.39v under load in Everest.

Cores are reaching up to 73 C and my motherboard has reached a crazy 63 C, this is 15 mins of Prime, I have my window open too, little worried about that mobo temp.

Edit mobo has hit 68 C! Should I stop? nah if it burns out then so be it.

With the last Vcore increase it was stable for 20 mins before I stopped fearing damage due to the NB temp.

Vmch is +0.2v
Vfsb is stock
Vdimm is +0.2v

Ram is already at 1:1 and I had it running as high as 960Mhz before.

Q6600 G0
Giga DS3
Crucial Ballistix 4 x 1Gb
Corsair 520w
Scythe Ninja (TRUe on the way)

I'm looking at a new board to have a play with if I can find something sub £100 that will clock well.

Thanks
