Lost Intel Speedstep

[Sliver]

Hi.

Had to reinstall Windows recently and lost my overclock settings. I managed to get my overclock back after some googling but I've lost the correct Intel Speedstep functions in the Bios. I've tried enabling Speedstep but I must be missing somethnig because my i5200k is not ramping down when idle. It's just stuck at 4.5GHz all the time. System is stable but I don't want my CPU maxed all the time.

What settings do I need to tweak in my BIOS to get Speedstep working again? My hardware is in my sig but if you need more info I can post it up. I have the ASUS UEFI Bios on my Mobo.

It's enabled but still not working:

it wont work if your using a fixed cpu voltage,you need to use cpu offset for it to downclock at idle

try offset
then medium loadline calibration
then set +0.040v in cpu offset,stress cpu and look to see what load cpu v is in cpu-z and adjust offset if to high or low

Ok, tried the above and still not working. Here's what settings I have now:

see where it says cpu voltage (manual mode?) change it to offset then in offset make sure its +0.040v

also make sure the first two digits are 0 so not to overvolt the cpu so +0.040v,set loadline calibration to medium aswell

your still in manual cpu voltage hence why its not downclocking

Sorry I uploaded the wrong Screenshot. I've edited above post to show my current offset settings.

Wazza, look again at Post8 as I have edited it, the first image, It shows the offset I have just added. Is this right?

 

[Sliver]

No, still not downclocking

You da man Wazza Changed to Balanced Power Saving in Windows settings and it's ramping down now. Thanks for your help.

Ran IBT and it passed. CPU was at 1.38v mostly, a touch high but temps were fine. Thanks again.
