I've also had good stability with underclocking. It generally reduces CPU power directly by the percentage underclock, so a 3/4 underclock will save 75% of the CPU's power. Not clear how important that is, the CPU a big user of power but there are many others. The power supply typically wastes a huge amount, and fast disk drives are power sinks. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
