There's just no guarantee. The core idea is to cut was to disable defective cores, and be left with either an x3 or x2.
To meet market demand, with better yields, some chips with fully functioning 3of4 became x2 (opposed to x3) or even 4of4 became x3 OR x2 just with the excess cores disabled
You have no way to know whether your chip only had 2, 3 or even 4 fully-functional cores without attempting to unlock & stress-test.
If you got to 3, great. The push to 4 though, is highly unlikely. If it can't be done at even 1.4V, then chances are it's not going to happen at all.
