I've had a nightmare building a 1155 PC because all 3 motherboards of differant brands I've tried give of coil whine buzz from around CPU area with 3 differant PSUs.
So it seems I might have to admit defeat and disable C-state in BIOS to fix the noise.
I am using MSI P67A-C65(which advertises whistle free) and c1e is disabled by default and c-state fully enabled.
c1e doesn't make any differance to the noise so is that best left disabled shall I enable it?
I seemed to gain FPS with c-state disable even though my CPU clock is 2000mhz slower and turbo booster won't seem to go over 25% with it disabled, it also ran with more volts on idle without it.
C1E didn't seem to change anything.
Could anyone please explain the pros and cons(if any) of these and if the differance will be as small as it looks or any advice regarding the squeal/whine itself.
I run stock speeds because I want it as quiet as possible.
Thanks in advance.
