Ok, I am a SSD SATA guy But CPU/GPU performance is affected? Can reach it peak speed performance?

Have you found any solution for this? I installed Unraid for the first time 6.12.6. Disconnecting ethernet, I found out that the problem to go beyond C3 was it. Then I saw these completely right complaining post yours. There is no way to change the drivers in newer versions? We should avoid new versions forever and ever if we want to save those 2W?

I am testing 12V one for same board. Works for me too, but What's the counter part of this. I mean, when complete system board+cpu+gpu+disk are under stress, what can happen? Doesn't reach performance? Which proportion?

Install Ubuntu where? at usb or nvme disk? By now, without ethernet and with hdmi,I have reached C8 state. I don't know the difference between C8 and C10 and if I should get C8 . ASPM command output remains the same: with realtek ethernet Disabled. I've found this, same board. Probably same issue:

What can you tell me about usb? I run unraid from usb,so I guess I can’t try disconnecting it. you disconnect ethernet and see states from hdmi?

Hello, Great opening post. Full of insights. I've been reading it a few times, and many other topics too. And I cannot find the cause my system is not achieve what you get. I am using n100dc-itx, crucial nvme 16 gb crucial ram 3200 cl22 sata controller asm 1166 without any disk connected to it using two different external powerbrick transformers. I've got two by the way19V and 12V (I've readed here 12V is valid, but I guess I won't be able to get normal speed performance) ssh connection (no keyboard, gui, or hdmi at this moment) My power measurer hasn't arrived yet, so no measures by the moment. After activating every power consumption measure at the bios (c-states,asp,)reproducing your steps: Ok,looks fine but: As yo can see I don't go beyond C3. ASPM: CPU freq: too much? So:, my doubts: No need to update asm 1166 firmware I guess. But ethernet controller is disabled. Maybe is not possible? I really don't know what is this: 00:1c.6 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Device 54be After all, maybe I am going beyond C3, but is one of those cases powertop doesn't show rigth info? Are laptop 75W and 45W watts powerbricks better than corsair you show? I am going to use use ssd sata disks. So I guess I've got 15W(45w - 30w max watt motherboard) - 2W(controller) margin for them. Isn't it? How many ssd sata will I be able to connect?
