One question, I disabled SpeedStep. Isn't that what causes the idle clocks to drop down to 1600MHz? I'm still idling at 1600MHz with it disabled. wha-smiley.png

Go to advanced cpu screen and disabled thermal throttling.

Did that, still sitting here at 1600MHz. -_- It jumps upto 4000MHz as soon as I launch something, but why isn't it staying there?

their the power saving features that come with the cpu, Disable C1e/speedstep(EIST)/C3/C6/package C-states to turn everything off. it isnt really preventing you from doing what you do though, as it will only clock down when it is idle. C3/C6/package c-states tend to give some BSOD's so i would disable those. C1E only clocks the cpu down when idle, and speedstep clocks it accordingly to how much load is on the cpu. i left only C1E enabled myself. you should find them under CPU configuration

I thought c1e/c3/c6 were all different power states the computer could be in like sleep, hibernation, etc.
I always disable all of those they are bad for your hardware imo.

theres a nice table of what the processor states do here
they arent really bad for your hardware, if all they increase the processors lifetime(due to it running at lower voltage/clocks). when overclocking some of them just turn the system unstable.
the windows states are called S 0-4 described here

Yeah, I guess it isn't hurting anything leaving it as is with SpeedStep disabled. About the ThermalThrottling, if the CPU gets too hot for whatever reason, will having this enabled prevent it from shutting down to protect itself? Should I re-enable that?
