I became aware of the great power settings tweaking tool 'Power Settings Explorer' ( Windows power plan settings explorer utility ). It allows you to hide/unhide, and change, many different settings related to power plan settings.
I've been aware of 'Max Processor State' for a long time; you specify it in %, from 0-100%. But through this new tool, I became aware of 'Max Processor Frequency', which you specify in Hz, from 0-<your maximum frequency>.
My question is - if I set 'max processor state' to, say, 50%, what am I actually limiting - is it affecting a voltage, a frequency, or what?
Thanks for any insight. Google doesn't seem to be helping me on this one!
