  1. Your problem with the CPU not down-clocking when idle is probably due to one of the following reasons…

    1/ You’re running Windows with the performance profile enabled rather than using balanced,

    2/ You’re forcing a CPU core voltage which is a totally nonsensical way to overclock a Skylake CPU.

    Try running the balanced Windows profile and applying a positive CPU core voltage offset instead. It will work flawlessly and exactly as intended on this motherboard.

  2. This does work well with 7th generation intel right?
