    No, thats the GPU and no you don't need to disable it. Where did you get the idea to disable speedstep anyways?

    btw, you could have just continued on the other thread, why start another one?

    I was reading ikovac's guide and was mistaken between turning off powerplay and speedstep, Ikovac's guide says disable powerplay, My apologies
