CPU POwer Save Mode & Renegade
While playing Renegade (which most of all needs enought CPU power for a good FPS), which Intel-CPU power save mode do you use: EIST, C1E, both or none?
And do you have problems with that?

Your CPUs power saving mode should not be active while the CPU is active, so I don't see how it makes a difference when your actually playing Renegade.
Anyway, I set my CPUs minimum frequency when idle to 1% through Vista's power management options and it's never caused me any problems.

I have never experienced any problems with it, even playing games like Supreme Commander which are very heavy on the CPU.
Even if the CPU idle power saving does kick in it it can throttle back up to 100% almost instantly if the extra power is required.
