You're a gent. Seems to work nicely. (Sent more technical feedback via message). Here's my Cinebench R20 results: First using auto core voltage at x29/29/29/30/31/31 (I estimate the chip's max core auto VID as 1.275V; Vtt is manually raised to 1.275V for the DDR1600). And voltage pumped up...

Juggling voltage + multipliers during sleep on Nehalem/Westmere I'm having sleep problems, but it's because I'm trying to get clever and modify voltage while running. I've been running with the BIOS set to auto core voltage, and ThrottleStop has my 29-31 multipliers for that in its default...

Okay, don't do this. Yes it does what I described, but the downside is significant latency problems. Don't know why I didn't notice sooner - probably running too many synthetic loads :) People do generally recommend turning core parking off altogether to solve latency problems - if you turn...

Been doing a bit more stress testing. I think my default-voltage 29/29/30/30/31/32 was a bit optimistic for the fewer-core multipliers. Had a couple of failures in normal use, despite no problems in the stress tests. Still working on it. Looked into shutting cores down for maximum stress, so I...

I recently decided to finally do something nice to my old Asus P6T Deluxe with Core i7 920, and started off down the six-core Xeon rabbit hole, so found my way here. I've spent many hours reading this thread - great stuff. My thanks to all the contributors. I went with an X5675 initially, but...
