Take your time, but you can do it very easy.
You have unlocked multi on 1090T, put your CPU voltage on 1,4 V
and change multiplier and I'm pretty shure you will find it stable at 3.8-3.9 GHz.
You can't damage CPU with that voltage, just watch temperature with
HWmonitor ( this one is the most precise for AMD I think).
If it is under 60* C loaded with Prime95 for example,it is OK,
in il2 it will be arround 50* C.
If you find it stable then you can try to lover CPU voltage step by step,
with testing in between,to find sweet spot, minimal CPU voltage for desired CPU frequency.
From my experience 1.37- 1.38 V is usually enough for 3.8 -3.9 GHz,
but that depends on particular CPU speciment.
