Speedstep technology

i just found out about this today , after installing my Dark Knight cooler. pag homan install ako reset ang CMOS, then changed the fsb(300x10) para ma overclock. pag check nako sa CPU-Z, ako multiplier was down to x6, nya ako core speed was only 1.8ghz instead of 3ghz . so i did some reading sa [H] forums, and it was there where i read about unsa ang speedstep hehehe... for those kato wala kahibaw, speed step will constantly change the multipiler to manage heat and power consumption, if you are overclocking turn it off to stress test your pc, you don't want it on. You can turn it back on after you are sure your oc is stable. as for me, im leaving it on for now to save some energy/power, with it On, my pc idles at 38-40 degrees, kung Off 40-44 degrees.

so do you guys leave it On or Off? mo balik ra man sa original OC ang pc kung stressed or mag gaming ka, nya mo lower down imo multiplier if mag idle imo pc.

i turn it off when i'm still tweaking the settings, then turn it back on once i know my overclock's stable. in case you didn't know, AMD's Cool and Quiet Technology is the counterpart to Intel's EIST. Besides EIST, there's also C1E, C2E, Extended HALT but basically these are suspended states. I think it's best if you read about your processor's technologies by going to its datasheet itself para daghan ka mahibaw-an what it can do.

@poldo i tried doing that pero wa man koy masabtan.

nice tnx sa info.. nag libog sad ko ani before

When overclocked its best to disable these power saving features to rule them out of the booting/desktop stability issue.

psst... ani na siya..

ang speedstep kay pagamayon niya ang multiplier ng processor kung way kaau gamit.
then i saka ra balik pag naa na load ang processor.

pag run nimo ng cpu-z wla paman load imo processor so iya gi ubos ang multipier.

kung mag OC ka mas maau jud na off tanan powersaving na features kay POWERSAVING SACRIFICES PERFORMANCE.

hehe.. thanks toinker. ganiha lang gyud ko buntag nkahibaw about ana . nahibong gyud ko nganu lain ang reading sa Cpu-z na ako naman unta gi change ang bios. it took me almost an hour to figure out ngano ingon ato ang reading hehehe. abi gyud nako naa ko na tandog pang assemble ug balik sa pc lol

Ako jud enable ang EIST after stable OC basta naka stock autovolt ko.

OFF nako basta mag adjust ko Vcore for stability purposes.

Daku ang waste energy kung dli magamit. Better if enable ang EIST kay majority sa time sa PC is spent on idle time.

Lesser Temps. Lesser Noise.
