Re: Settings OC i7 965 and x58 Extreme?
I have overcloked the system with easytune 6 only with the multiplier to 27. and memory to 1600, his speed.

Re: Settings OC i7 965 and x58 Extreme?
Don't use EasyTune do it manually, load optimized defaults, set boot seqquence RAID etc. then try to set memory to 1600 first.
If the memory has XMP profile you can use it, if not set memory multiplier to 12 and timings as memory specs.
You will likely need to increase QPI/Vtt anywhere from 1.2 to 1.35v, use the lowest possible to be stable.
Run memtest86+ before you run windows, then in windows run 2-3 hours Prime95 large FFT torture, if stable move on to CPU OC.
Watch your core temperatures with Core Temp or RealTemp, they should not exceed 70c at stock CPU settings.
Is it water cooling CPU cooler that you have?

Re: Settings OC i7 965 and x58 Extreme?
Leaving memory timings auto will set them higher than spec (lower performance) set them manually as specified on the sticker/package.
It is best that you find the lwest possible voltages (CPU, QPI/VTT, DRAM).
It depemds on the RAM but if specs are 1.5v for 1600 you may want to lower it. More is not always better.
Is the MCH still with stock cooling? maybe a side fan can help there.

Re: Settings OC i7 965 and x58 Extreme?
I am not sure on his terminology but I think he is saying Radiator ->CPU?->Pump->Res?->northbridge->radiator
For liquid cooling, loop order does not matter. You can have res->pump->cpu->gpu->rad or res->pump->rad->cpu->gpu or any other combination. Once you reach equilibrium the water is going to be the same temp. Put the order of your components the easiest way or the cleanest looking way.
The north bridge temp is fine and it should drop once you go liquid other wise just put a small fan towards it to blow air on it.Main Rig

Re: Settings OC i7 965 and x58 Extreme?
Try with Prime95.
If you run it for the first time click "just turture" (or something similar).
When you get the turture test selection dialog,click custom, put 1024 in both min and max FFT size fields, and run for 10 minutes, see if there is any change.
It might be that that reading is not very reliable.
Measure temps aftwer 0 minutes while Prime96 is running.
