Quote:would disabling 1 of the 3570k's cores and increasing the OC due to the reduced heat output improve performance (with lle on a thread)
No. Because it wouldn't help you OC any further. Ivy bridge downclocks and lowers the voltage on cores that are idle or under low load. It may even cause them to enter a sleep state where most of the core is shut off entirely. In other words your CPU pretty much already takes care of this for you. The heat that these cores generate is negligible.
