How does this look?

The multiplyer changes obviously depending on useage.

Looks fine, have you tested it with orthos?

Have you disabled speedstep in the BIOS?

I have on mine and it still seems to kick in, alternating between 2.5 and 3.8Ghz

Have a look in the BIOS for a setting for C1E and disable it

Its fine to leave it on though i mean if the computer is idling it will use less power.

its fine to leave it on, it doesn't really use less power though because it merely drops the frequency and not the voltage.

e8400 is a good Cpu only if you plan to Overclock it to past 4Ghz
