will this affect performance while cooling the processor?

on load it won't change anything, however at idle it will have the os issue halt and stop commands thus idling the cpu. I think you will notice 5-10 degrees C cooler temps.

that has been reported and discussed here long time ago works only in idle, the change register "62" from "B3" to "B7" seems to take away a few frames in 3D games. That was reported in other forums, don't ask me where. The same "tweak" is included in the Asus Probe, or in other CPU cooling software.

so it won't help much...and quite useless

depends, if you are 7/24 on and your machine is a lot in idle, you can decrease of course the system temp quite a lot. But for the normal user, who has his machine basically never in idle, I doubt it has much use.

I think it might increase the life duration of yer sys, uless you're playing/working/serving/whatever 24/24-7/7
or do I misunderstand the thing .. is this also reducing temp when you're long away (e.g sleeping ...) or does my &quot;sleep&quot; and powersave functions take care of that ?
