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. »

With the aid of a slide bar, one is free to set idle time for system power plan and select any amongst them, ranging from a high performance to a balanced or a power saving one. Also, depending on your requirements, the option to temporarily lock the computer in high performance or power saving mode is readily accessible.

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. »
