Hey, I overclocked my E5200 to 3Ghz on stock volts and I'm noticing on CPUZ and other info programs that when my CPU is not under load the multiplier is halfed, I heard something about intel putting this feature on their CPU to reduce power consumption, and I was wondering if there is a way to turn it off.

Think its called Intel Speedsafe or something

I have a GA-EP43-DS3L (F9a BIOS)

Quick side note i OC'ed my CPU to 3ghz and my RAM to 800mhz (from 667) at 1.9 volts (it was 1.8) does this sound safe? I'm a complete noob at OCing. Temps are 45-49 Idle, 50-55 Load on a crappy Intel Stock fan

Thanks In Advance

Been running prime95 for about 30 minutes now, temps round about 60-62

Is this thing stable for as long as prime95 doesnt crash, or am I waiting for something to tell me its stable :P

(Also what does TJ stand for, as in Real Temp's "Distance to TJ Max".)
