just to let everyone know,

EIST refers to Enhanced Intel Speedstep Technology

This is a feature that let you saves power consumption and is dervied from mobile proc (staring from P3-M)

The speed varies according to usage. the lower it is, the lower power the consumption

disabling the EIST (either BIOS, control panel in windows or 3rd party software like centrino hardwre controller, CHC) will enable one to take full control of the proc, in this case, for o/c purposes

EIST for desktop procs is available from PentiumD9xx (but not activated) and up to the recent C2D procs
