  • C1E/ C2/C2E/ c4/ C4E

    Do I need to have all these enabled using the Ep45-UD3P and a Q9550? Does enabling this lower the mobo ability to overclock or should I disable all these? Some of them are enabled by default. Should I disable them?

    Keeping them enabled does appear to affect overclocking stability.

    You'll no doubt find plain old CI (no E suffix) will be working anyway so your windows idle temperatures will be kept down.

      I also think it is pretty nice to have everything enabled... thus lowering down energy costs... but the price is not significant.. so C1 [plain jane] is good enough then instead of the others C2-C4's...?

        You can use it. Just if your OC'ing you should turn it off and test your OC to be stable. Then you should run the low setting, 6xFSB at the same lower volts that it ends up using and test that for stability also. Then you can turn that stuff on and see how it goes, most times it will be stable, sometimes the switching could be not that in sync and could cause issues. Not much you can do then other than lower your OC or you can use RMclock as that lets you adjust the voltages at each multi

          Yep C1 has the biggest impact and appears to always be enabled and driven by the OS. The Enhanced/Extended states just take that tier a step deeper. You'll notice the CPU temperature drop as you go from the Bios/Dos prompt/Linux Bootable etc to Windows idle of around 10C on a rough average.

          As per my other post, you can see C1 (plain - no E suffix) working, by using Windows Performance Monitor.
