What are your voltages and memory speciation's, you can use CPU-Z to get all the information like core voltage and DRAM frequency and post pictures , also what are you using for stress testing like prime 95 or Linx0.6.4.:)

what do you mean you tried everything? what have you tried?

How high have you set the vcore? this might not be the safest way, but if it was me, i would just keep raising the vcore higher and higher with the speed still at 3.8 and then see what your highest full load safe vcore is (meaning, watching your temps and making sure they are more then 10 degree under Tj. Max). once you find your highest safe vcore voltage, then try to fire it up at 4.01Ghz.
