Very interesting idea if it may solve the issue we have heard too much complains about, which is too much power consumption for OpenMandriva Lx 2014. Maybe the best thing would be checking if the current used PC is a notebook, and in that case, propose for the use of the Power Savings tool. Or even (but I don't know if it's doable) monitoring tool that would propose this solution if the processor becomes too hot. Sometimes some even small destkop computer (or old computer) fans make too much noise when they activate at some temperature to cool the processor.
