i have an i5 750 not overclocked for now, i had some serious problems like freezing and BSOD and after investigations i found that i must disable EIST power saving option, this problem was seen on many many i5 processors.
so i left the turbomode+c1+c2/c3 options enabled to save power but the multiplier is now fixed between 23-24 for all cores. 24 is normally the maximum turbo multiplier when one core is in use.
it is safe to run with this all the time ?
