I gave it a try. But at the lowest PST, my processor is already at the lowest voltage that RMClock can set. So since I'm using my computer at the lowest multiplier and voltage all the time through Window's default power management, this doesn't give me a cooler PC or more battery life.

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.

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?
