c-states are for the cores. While EIST allows the cpu multi to drop to its lowest value at idle and its highest (set multi) at load.
C1e can be disabled if you are using windows 7 with power options set to balanced.
Thermal monitor and bi directional prochot, I dont know exactly but something with monitoring and communicating to detect cpu is over heating or not.

TM - Thermal Monitor controls what your CPU will do when it reaches the thermal throttling point.
Bi-directional PROCHOT allows other devices like the on board voltage regulator to throttle your CPU by sending a signal directly to the CPU.
You can run any combination of C1E/C3/C6 or EIST. Different motherboard BIOS versions and different CPUs handle these differently. Use whatever combination that lets your CPU run the way you want it to run. The Control Panel - Power Options - Minimum processor state setting also controls what multiplier you get at idle.
Check out ThrottleStop for an honest look at what your CPU is really doing internally.
