Im trying to get a p4 2,6c to 3,4 ... I am now sitting at 255 fsb, and unable to push further ... I think it has something to do with ram ... i have 2 questions :

I have Corsair pc-3200 ram, and i would like to know if there are any dangers in pushing it up to max voltage ( i think its 2.85 max, not sure! )

What do you suggest I put as settings to be able to boot at 3.4 ?

Then you have to use 3:2, your memory normally can't go much higher than what it's rated. You could try using 2.85vdimm that will void the corsair's 2.8vdimm warrenty. Or simply relax your timings to 3-4-4-8 and see how far you could push the memory. Remember Frequency>Timings.

2.85 volts is about the maximum you want to be putting through your memory. The corsair has heat spreaders so it should be fine...
