I have no interest in overclocking, I just want the CPU to operate at Intel stock, which states 95W, which matches with the C7's capabilities.

If I turn MCE off (I'm unsure whether it will be auto or on by default, will find out later), is that sufficient to peg the CPU back to Intel stock performance?

I'm reading mixed opinions on the Internet, I understand that this whole area of Intel vs Mobo settings has become a bit of a confusing grey area.
