Thank you for contacting Intel(R) Technical Support.

I understand your point about disabling the C1E feature so you can overclock the system.

As stated before, unfortunately this feature is not possible to be disabled in a processor level because it is part of its electronic design.

Bare in mind that overclocking is neither recommended nor supported by Intel(R).
Information on this subject can be found at:

As well it is important to mention that we do not recommend using a different fan and heatsink than the one that comes with the boxed processor. Using a different fan and head sink than the one that was provided with the processor, as well as overclocking will void the processor warranty.

Sincerely,

Jonathan V.

LOL, what's the point of selling a motherboard with overclocking if immediatly after selling you one, you cannot do anything with it.

I suggest you try to find a way to contact the BIOS team since the sig on those replies made me believe it's a entirely different departement, team and surely a poorer IQ level. Those guys has no clue how things work !!
