i'm undervolting and attempting to find the lowest stable voltage for various p-states using K10stat. other than making P0 equal to the one i want to test, is there a way to force selection of a specific p-state? then i could stability test with it rather than waiting for a blue screen.

AII - 640
P0 2800 1.2250V CPU and NB (cheapy TA760G M2+ doesn't allow separate voltage tweaking, though by default K10stat reports separate voltages)

P1 2100 1.2250V (not yet tweaked)

P2 1600 1.2250V (not yet tweaked)

P3 800 0.8750V (0.8500 crashes)

why not set all the pstates to the frequency/voltage that you want to stability test?

The best bet would be the software that came with your mobo, but I still find it highly unlikely that you would be able to manually set p states.

Its going to be a pain in the ass, but your going to have to do exactly what you described. Simulate p1/2/3 by lowering p0 to whatever value you are going to use. I wouldn't put too much time into it though as the processor isn't in p1/p2 for very long and you seem to have your p3 figured out.
