EIST and BSOD

[wikki]

---

setup:
i3 2100
gigabyte ga-h67-d2-b3

My system goes BSOD after 30min or less if I enable the EIST and C3/C6.

If I leave them to auto then no bsod, But I doubt its working since naka full 3.1ghz ang system when i detect it using aida64 and cpu-z.

normal bani? anyone using an i3 2100 experiencing the same bsod.

faulty speedstep in i3 perhaps?

set it to AUTO in bios, set power management to BALANCED, load up latest cpu-z and let ur pc idle(w/o any other appz in the background)

Yeah, auto resolves this issue instead of enabled. Probably a microcode bug in the bios.

EDIT:

I believe this is a common issue for Gigabyte boards, I can use C3/C6 while overclocking if I set it to auto instead of enabled.

yup ni work ra pag maka auto in the bios setting. turning it off does'nt bsod as well. Kana lang gyud if e Enable na setting mu bsod gyud after some time being idle or load under 5%.
