Hi!
At the present moment I have a P4 2.53 ghz and so far as I am concerned it uses a lot of electricity. So I wonder if I can go in on BIOS settings and slow down the speed for example down to 200-600 mhz over the night when I just have it on for downloading stuff, to reduce my bills on electirity? Is that possible, would it not damage my CPU?
I also wonder if anybody knows how big the differences are between 200 mhz, 300 mhz, 1 ghz, 2ghz and so on if you are focusing on the electricity usage?
Lets say for an example: "you will spare 6 times money having a 200 mhz CPU on than a 2.53 ghz".
Thanks!
