Ok thanks.
What are the idling temps for you at 1.6GHz and 4.5GHz?
BTW, how much time does the chip stay at full speed when it's not stressed anymore?

Is there no stability issue with constant changes in freq and voltage like this?
Does the chip goes back to lower voltage at 1.6GHz?

Just 2-3 degrees different, and all my case-fans spins at ~60% that can add to it, but temp-difference is not a big deal. I'm more concern to know about the real different in power-usage, and mentioned temp because it indicates power-usage, but the temp in not a big deal by itself.

Cores are very responsive, they jump up and down real-time. I'm using manual vCore, with LLC=Ultra, and the it's 1.288v/1.272v (Idle/Load). No stability issue at all.

If you want low voltage at idle, then you have to use oftest mode, but I personally haven't used it, and don't know much about it.
