    Hi all,

    Recently I had to update TS to 8.70 and I lost all of my config settings. I applied my undervolts as I remembered those, but I don't remember what other settings I had for things like EPP, SpeedStep, C1E etc so I left them as default.

    Before my system would drop down to 800MHz on idle which was great, but now on idle is sits at 2GHz. What settings could it be that are stopping it from underclocking on idle?

    Thanks

    Post some pictures of your TS settings. Did you enable Speed Shift? If so, what is your speed shift EPP?
