I tried 200*19 and didn't have much luck with it.

It wouldn't let me pick QPI/VTT of 1.35V, it gave me choices of 1.34 or 1.36. Am I doing that wrong?

I did get a stable 4GHz overclock today, just got done with Intel Burn Test.

This was with VCore of 1.3, QPI/VTT of 1.34. I probably need to bump up the Vcore a bit if I want to get a higher overclock, I might try that or just leave it like this and be happy. I should probably save this BIOS so that I don't forget how I did it.

I wonder if I should re-enable turbo mode and test stability again?

VVT=1.32v to 1.34v looks Ok for this Uncore-frequency, and you are not doing it worng, the VVT jumps by 2 in UD7-BIOS, from 1.32 to 1.34v.

This looks like a good start. Save it as a profle and and don't touch it. Keep it as a refrence, and save your changes and new attempts as a new profile. (F11 to save a profile, F12 to load, in BIOS)

Try to decrease the vCore a few nothes, and if it fails the stabilty-test, then your previus attempt on 4.13GHz needs more vCore. Don't use turbo, try 160x26 or 165x25 with more vCore for your next attempt, if you want more than 4GHZ.
