Hehe, excellent find. It makes it look so easy Need to remove a ")" from the end of that link to make it functional.
Just ordered one, p-tune looks promising. Hope i can run the monitoring stuff on a different pc (assuming it connects via usb or similar).
Not sure what you mean, but if you mean the PSU is used and monitoring one system while you're logged on another and seeing the metrics with the software, then I'm not sure.
I think this is normal behaviour, if the p-state changes the register get's copied to c0010070. Here it was enough to generate some load start/stop prime95 to force the switch.
Yep. But in my case, total P-State change didn't occur even if it was copied to c0010070 and c0010065 and c0010062 set to P1 unless I enabled and disabled CnQ again.
Must say i'm ok with 2.6GHz at 1,3375V (1,325V just froze). Max i got stable for more that 4hrs is 2.63GHz(~1,39375V). 2.64GHz freezes after ~half an hour with volts up to 1,45V, which is too much for me to run 24/7.
Can not get my idle consumption below 105W AC.
Wow, things are a little different but my volts are lower so that's why. I had to increase volts to get more stability but no need to increase IMC/NB/HT/RAM volts yet. I'm at this since around 12 hours now for stability:

One notch less in volts (1.264) would fail on core3 after 30 mins while other carried on past 4 hours smallFFT.

CnQ Power: Idle 93W AC
No CnQ Power: Idle 105W AC

It's getting better with optimizations, pretty weird.

Never wrote a windows app in c++, gonna skim over a few tutorials first. Should not be too difficult.
Yea I don't like clogging my drives up with big software etc, not even got word/etc installed on these. Only the basics. IMO writing C++ is boring but that's not the worst bit, deassembling them is the biggest pain.

BTW, Sapphire board I may skip testing. I'm too short of time and got the Abit 770 and GBT 780G as well to test yet.
