Shadowfactor Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Okay so I have a E6850 with a DFI Lanparty 680i I checked the cpu speed and it likes goes from 3.0 ghz to 2.0 ghz. I checked and saw that C1E was disabled in the bios but it's still doing this. Is there something in the bios that I'm missing ? cpu-z reports it going from 3.0 ghz ( 9X) to 2000 mhz (6x) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowfactor Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 where is that in the bios ? I dont see it and I looked in my mobo manual but half the stuff is different Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Not sure on that board but it may be called Speed Step or Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowfactor Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I dont have any of those options or atleast can't find them. Someone help me out ?? The other thing i've found was C1E and it's disabled I'm running windows vista if that matters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other thing i've found was C1E and it's disabled I'm running windows vista if that matters No vista has nothing to do with the bios, I am just familiar at all with the bios on that board. Edit: Google says its PPM(EIST) Mode Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowfactor Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 I looked at that but there is only native mode and Legacy mode and it talks about it being for different OS's. It's still doing it and everything is disabled! Any other things it could be ?? Is there any other programs like cpu-z i could test with maybe cpu-z is messed up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 From what I have read about the DFI boards there is no option for EIST, the board runs full speed. I did see that if your are running Vista, you also need to set your power profile to High Performance to avoid speed-stepping.

Shadowfactor Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 Windows Vista being dumb. I had my power scheme set to Balanced not High performance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted October 24, 2007 Posted October 24, 2007 I did not think the O/S had any effect as I posted above, but I was wrong. With Vista anything is possible I guess.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
