CPUMSR!

**16****. December 2003 ** Article explaining how to change multiplier on-the-fly from Windows OS was added in Tweaks section. **30 . November 2003 ** New version of CPUMSR is in download area. This version should support ** on-the-fly multiplier and voltage adjustments on Pentium M** processor. Need report if it works or not. **28****. November 2003 ** I added Intel Processor Maximum Power Consumption data. There are currently 5 CPUs with more than 100W and 9 CPUs with more than 90W of power consumption. In this case, power consumption is the same as thermal power. If you want silent PC or conserve on energy, check this out! **22****. November 2003 ** New version of CPUMSR added. See Project status for changes. **15 . November 2003 ** _CPUMSR passed multiplier and voltage c

  • RMClock

  • RightMark CPU Clock Utility (RMClock) is a small GUI application designed for real-time CPU frequency, throttling and load level monitoring and on-the-fly adjustment of the CPU performance level on supported CPU models via processors power management model-specific registers (MSRs). In automatic management mode it continuously monitors the CPU usage level and dynamically adjusts the CPU frequency, throttle and/or voltage level as needed, realizing the "Performance on Demand" concept. Notice: RMClock is different than CPU RM, those are two very different pieces of software designed to do different things. »

  • upower

  • UPower is an abstraction for enumerating power devices, listening to device events and querying history and statistics. Any application or service on the system can access the org.freedesktop.UPower service via the system message bus. Some operations (such as suspending the system) are restricted using PolicyKit. UPower was once called DeviceKit-power. UPower aims to make a large chunk of HAL redundant, as HAL is officially deprecated.

  • Faronics Power Save

  • Faronics Power Save is an effective and reliable energy conservation tool that accurately manages energy consumption throughout ain a multiple workstation environment and significantly cuts down on energy expenditures. Power Save offers flexible options for determining when a computer is inactive (by CPU usage, hard drive usage or by running applications—not just keyboard and mouse movement), and only shuts computers down when they are inactive for a specified amount of time. As well, Power Save can schedule shutdown, start-up, and wake events by day, weekend, weekday, or a specific date. Faronics Power Save provides central reporting, configuration management, deployment, and control across an enterprise via Faronics Core Console. »
