However, when I upgraded to X2 4200+, I found that anything above 2530 Mhz would cause my rig to hang if C&Q is enabled.
And imaging your CPU suddenly going from load 2.9Ghz 1.5v to 1.0Ghz 1.1v or vice versa. Might put a huge strain on the CPU???

No, it won't strain the CPU at all, and it will not go to 1.0GHz. The lowest clock speed you can get is 5xHTT.
The reason why you get hang in C&Q beyond 2530MHz is because ur idle CPU clock speed cannot run at 1.1V.

His point is, manual C&Q, where user control the raw power at will
using bios/auto C&Q may make ur proc speed/multi jump up and down controlled by OS

OS control is much better & efficient IMHO, as the FID and VID is changed very quickly and safely as compared to manual changes using 3rd party / mobo provided software.
