Yeah, that would be likely due to the smaller more efficient die. I am currently using a 3570k and even that was better than my 2500k wen it came to heat.

There is no reason you need to turn off speedstep unless you are trying to achieve a crazy benchscore temporarily with an extremely high OC. What scores do you get on benchmarks like 3Dmark? What CPU scores? You could also be experiencing a memory issue if switching between things causes sluggishness.

What you described with downclocking normally indicates an unstable overclock. Do your voltages also drop when this happens? I take it this is not an issue with stock clocks?

No issue with stock clocks, voltage seems fine just getting down clocked tried playing with the voltage up to 1.38v with no luck

Real overclockers leave Speedstep on, or so I am told.
I gotta admit, I have turned it off in the past (and do now with my 60w Xeon) but yeah, from what I have been told you should leave it on. I would imagine it would prolong the life of your CPU also.
