that's all you need to do for it to run normally?

yeah, it's stable... only problem is that the software has not been updated for quite long...

yeah.. most of us here using it with windows 7

Core I now can undervolt?

if it's working i don't think is much of a problem.

can't wait to get my lappie and undervolt it. by the way, how's windows 7 compared to xp and vista? i hate vista, like xp but not xp's boring appearance. i heard one of my friends saying that since he switched to 7, there's less virus now.

Windows 7 is nice man.. I wonder why people still want to use XP

Well about viruses.. Depends on the user as well..

Windows 7 is nice,for me it's much faster than Windows XP,and no problems at all.

By the way,I do want to try to undervolt my processor because the battery life drains quite fast.But if I do,will there be a decrease in performance?A lot or just a little?

No performance decrease..

Its not underclocking.. its undervolting

I couldn't run RMclock in my W7 , i need press F8 during boot up and change a setting over there right ?

have anyone tried UVing a core i? i'm having a serious heat problem here

No, not in Safe Mode.. lol.. did you get the correct version for either ur 32bit or 64bit?

so it's not tried 7 tested yet. is there any other method to lower the cpu temp?

What laptop do u have there? Maybe its time for u to vacuum the vents? and how hot is hot? have u used HWMonitor to check the temps?

Acer 4740g,i5 430m & 310M...been using for 3 month, having major heat problem. Idle temp 4xc & can reach up to 9xc while gaming. FB games can reach 7xc. Using HWMonitor to check temps. Intel burn test can oso reach 8xc-9xc. The fan is spinning but not sure how fast. Dont think that the vent is clog coz its a new laptop. So far, never heard of this issue from other user. And also, the batt is starting to crap out:help:

And i google around, it seems that core i is imposible to UV.

Maybe urs having problems.. have it checked at service centre,,

What if my place dun hav any sc, if i send it the shop where i bought it, will they send it to the nearest sc or they'll fix it for me?

For those who are having problems with RMClock (like me) or who are using the new iCore processors, you might want to try(then buy) CPUgenie

It's a tool that's pretty much like RMClock, even down to the interface. although CPUgenie look cleaner.

Some differences are:
- Works right out the box with Windows 7 and 64 bit Windows
- You can't manually set C-states (but they are enabled)
- You can use and even force SuperLFM without crashing
- You can't seem to use IDA. I'm not sure about TurboBoost
- You can use half multipliers.**
- You can perform a stress test for each multiplier individually directly from within the program. Very useful to test stability. Sometimes, it will detect your PC is going to crash before it does, stopping the test and saving you the paon of seeing the BSOD screen and rebooting.
- Voltages set matches what is reported in CPU Z and HWinfo32 (There are reports saying they don't match when using RMClock but do with CPUgenie)
- You don't seem to need to disable Windows Power Management (Officially you need to, but mine runs with the correct voltages and multipliers without). Temperature reduction further proves this.
- You can configure it to switch power plan/profiles depending on the program running.

As much as I like it though, if RMClock works fine, I don't see a reason to buy or use this program.

Voltage Table for SP9400, should be a good reference for other SP processors and P9xxx processors.



**While it can use half multipliers, you won't see the dynamic multipliers. I'm not sure what's the proper name for it, but when Windows controls my processor based on my BIOS ACPI table, my multipliers works within a 0.5 range. For example will go up and down between 6.00 to 6.50, so I can get values like 6.13, 6.27 6.45 etc.

Hmm.. CPUgenie seems good then.. I wonder if it does Overclock?

How I wish it could be free

It can't overclock past the highest multiplier.

However it can overclock the SuperLFM state. By default my SuperLFM state's FSB is 133.3MHz with a multiplier of 6. I can increase the multiplier past 6. I've successfully ran it at 8. I retain the power saving this way when I force my laptop into SuperLFM when it's on battery. Half FSB does seem to save power, my memory base clock speed also halves along with the FSB.

Btw, do you know of any program to check the discharge rate of my battery to directly calculate how many watts my processor is actually using?

You can use this Battery Care to check discharge rate in 'mW'.
