Oh god, i hope this doesn't happen to me! I have the same setup and its 6 days away in the mail. Those temps are very high, but they might relate to the high voltage that you have.

Ok, have you tried using a smaller vcore voltage?
Could it be possible for you to give us a cpu-z validation or print screen with temperatures please

my D0 is getting 62C max on load folding on all 8 cores and i live in georgia so its always hot ambient if that tells you anything but my vcore is 1.275

Why not turn turbo on to get the 21x multi? 20x is more unstable for me than 19x or 21x, of course every chip is different but its something to try.
Pretty sure the UD3R can force 21x...

Vcore is way too high. 20x200 is no good, go 21x191, enable vdroop level 2, Qpi-should be around 1.335v. Vcore for 4.0GHz shouldn't exceed 1.3v if you have a D0 chip and it is not a terrible batch. Try these setting exactly. We have the same board so alot of them should be similar.

that is high Vcore for 4ghz shouldn't need that much. Im running mine @ 4.2ghz 1.28 Vcore idles 38 load 68c- megahelems with deltas push-pull

1.4 is really high for a d0 at 4.0ghz, my d0 is running 4.2 @ 1.25v, maxing around 78-81c in Linx and way lower in prime.
What kind of case are you using? Is the mega shadow in a single fan or push pull setup?
Are you still unstable at 1.4v?
ALSO - 20x multiplier tends to be very unstable and it usually takes more of a voltage to get stable on it, have you tried 19x or 21x multis?

Set it to the settings shown in the quick and dirty method. If you don't get a boot at these settings you have a really bad chip.
