maybe you have a virus or some other kind of malware preventing you from idling?

Try reseting you bios settings ....

If you are running Vista, Try going to the power --> advanced
change the min & max CPU power to 50% and see if it drops

I was having a similar issue with my Q6600 on a Gigabyte EP45-DS3L. The voltage would not change during idle. I found that raising vCore by a small amount (from 1.3175 to 1.325V) allowed for EIST to work correct the load temps went up by about 1'C (66'C -> 67'C under IBT) but the idle temps went down by about 3'C (41'C -> 38'C).

maybe a bios update (or downgrade, if you're desperate)?
