Doing OCCT and temp is around 65 with the Ultra-120 Extreme. Seems high, but this is only for benching as I will never use my PC regularly at this OCed state.
black slots FTW

eva2000, do you know what other affect this setting has? I am running the same setting as before and I don't have any issues as of yet.
not sure... not all core2 cpus support PECI even for same model if you look at intel spec finder sspec database so if you cpu doesn't support it enable/disable won't matter.

don't think the change is that much if they only updated the number from 0403 to 0404.. maybe a engineer made a slight boo boo in 0403 ?
