Has anyone come across someone with this setup?

What kind of an overclock could I expect with this board and a Q9550? Would 3.8-4ghz be feasible? I have read wonders about the other flavors of the EP45, but not the DS3L.

Also I was told when overclocking past 400fsb on this board I may need to upgrade my nb cooling. Is there any truth to this?
