Conflict of running programs? Dell quickset and Rightmark CPU clock utilitiy?

Will there be a conflict between running power saving settings on Dell's Quickset and Rightmark CPU clock utility? If I just use the power profiles do I need to use the Right mark program?

 

Well, no response from two boards must mean no one really uses Quickset for regulating their CPU. I have played around with different permutations. I have not payed attention to battery life but my battery life has not been as high with the NVIDIA 110 likely because I have the brightness and contrast cranked up higher (movies look very good):

Quickset to maximum performance, alone (encoding a DVD): 74 deg C
Quickset to maximum battery, alone (encoding a DVD): 54 deg C
Quickset off (encoding DVD), Laptop setting: 44 deg C
RM clock, Maximum performance, Quickset maximum performance: 55 deg C
RM clock, Maximum performance, Quickset off: 44 deg C
RM clock, Power Conservation, Idle: 35 deg C

I have disabled quickset for now and I am using RM clock utility, instead. I don't have a great need for toggling between battery life and performance, using the light sensor, or seeing the volume level / brightness level rise as I hit the respective keys.

Don't you love conversations with yourself? You should try it sometime. Ask a question and respond to it, yourself.

This is synonymous to seeing people talk on the streets without anyone around - you don't know if they are some Schizophrenic or have a tiny Bluetooth headset while carrying a conversation on their cellular phone.

 

you are slowly going insane. watch out for the guy behind you.

i run both quickset and rmclock. i have rmclock set to undervolt the cpu when on battery and that's all i use it for. i don't have any conflicts.

 

LMAO!

I am getting better temperature readings with RM clock alone. When I set to maximum performance, the heat starts to rise.
