Raise your QPI/DRAM voltage to 1.3v or higher if needed (max is 1.35v). You may even be able to lower your CPU voltages with a higher QPI/DRAM voltage.

21x195 is not 4.0, but yeah I agree with extreme that you should try raising vtt could be ioh as well. I'd raise your qpi/uncore to around 1.25 just to not have to worry about any kind of droop.

Agreeing with Extreme newbie.
Then you can finally get stock out of ya sig :>

i would raise your Qpi slightly before you try increasing your vcore, if that doesnt work, then increase your vcore by 1 increment seeing as how high it already is. what are your load and idle temps btw?

Yeah, I'd call that 4.1 though. Regardless, we'll get you fixed up

My Computer only runs at 3.9Ghz but I say its 5Ghz because I round everything to the nearest 5's.

I found that QPI/DRAM voltage was the key when overclocking my i7. Before raising the vcore you should try 1.35V for your QPI/DRAM and see if it becomes stable. If it is you can lower this voltage until it becomes unstable, then bump it back up to your last stable setting.

How can I tell if my i7 is D0? I don't know what D0 means.

Download CPU-Z and it will show you stepping of your CPU (As well as the speed, voltage, Ram timings, etc)
You can get it here
