also, when you say all eist and thermal, tm2 doesn't drop multi at idle. only when thermal it hit, it drops to the lowest vid and fid. i take it c1e is off too?

nothing wrong with enabling c1e... dfi's c1e actually drops vcore as well (at least on p965), which is great if you're paying for power. For instance, 6x450=2700 at 1.36v uses 150w. 8x450=3600 at 1.48v uses 210w.
