If you've seen my other thread, you'll know that I'm running a Bad Axe 2 (BIOS 2692) with a week 44G E6600 that's a poor overclocker. I have it stable at 1.55v @ 3.2Ghz (356 FSB).
As a precaution, I'd like to be able to enable EIST and let the CPU throttle down to 356x6 (2.13 Ghz) when idle. I usually leave my computer on all the time and am at work or sleeping a good 16 hours of the day, so this would be ideal.
Can I safely enable this without ruining my stability or will EIST kill my overclock?
I plan on trying it when I return home unless you guys think it might make my system fail to POST.
