ignore. misread your mobo

use at your own risk
miss read you want to go over 4, but link for the guy struggling to even get close to 4 then

See if your motherboard can handle the baseclock first.
Disable HT
Disable all cores (apart from one of course)
Set your lowest multi
Lower your memory to its lowest multi.
Adjust QPI accordingly.
Raise baseclock/vcore until you hit a limit.
To get high baseclock you may need to also raise PCIe frequency 105-110 maybe higher. Just be careful as you may lose USB/network with such high PCIe. If thats the case raise IOH core to compensate to 1.2 (1.1v stock iirc).
Once you know your chip/mobo can reach that baseclock you can start enabling your cores etc.
Hope this helps.
