What happens if you save the Rachni Queen in me3?

In Mass Effect 3, if you saved the Rachni Queen, she will be captured by the Reapers. However, unlike most other sentient beings, she is resistant to the Reaper indoctrination, and thus proves useless to them. She is kept in shackles, and you must lead an assault on the base where she is kept in order to free her.

Is it better to save the Rachni Queen?

If she is saved, rachni workers are sent to the Crucible project, where they are prized assets for their engineering capabilities, industrious nature, and good teamwork.

This couldn't have been done without Tali. Not even Garrus or Wrex could have pulled that off, but Tali did it without the benefit of Wrex's centuries of experience or Garrus' elite training and investigative skills. In that sense, Tali stands out as Shepard's best squadmate of all.

Can I do Virmire before Noveria?

For the sake of my own sanity it's always Therum, Feros, a ton of side missions, Noveria, Virmire, Illos.
