Power consumption

Post by Menard »

Hello

I checked the power consumption on the power outlet of my computer, so it is only the motherboard and the hard disks, under Linux I have 42 W with a complicated system that let the cores at 1.4 to 1.7 GHz and maximum when demand is 3.1 GHz
BUT on Windows XP 32 bits I have only 32 W but the CPU cores are all at 3.8 GHz minimum all the time ... because there is nothing to deal with some power consumption features ... but confused ? less features, more result :lol: :roll:

confused means W_T_F I didn't know this forum was matrixed ... :shock:
