Interesting, according to zenstates.py in my motherboard (a MSI B350 Tomahawk) the Package C6 State is enabled in both cases.

Actually, I have good news. Setting this option to typical current idle made my machine stable over the week end (it almost always freezes during the weekends if let idle). It is still too soon to assert anything. But it is a good sign.

I may also bring my kill-a-watt to compare the idle consumption from the outlet with this option enabled and disabled to see if I can find any difference. But, I have to find the kill-a-watt at my place first.
