Thanks again for the further clarification. My question arose because this is a Core2, and the link you provide specifically says that Turbo Boost is a feature of Nehalem. I never did find anything in the Core2 datasheets regarding Turbo. In fact on this page, there are no Core2 products listed with Turbo Boost: http://ark.intel.com/MySearch.aspx?TBT=true -jwb _______________________________________________ Power mailing list [email protected] http://www.bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/power
