    I recently undervolted my computer with RMClock in order to lower the heat output. I had previously used NHC just for the information it provided - battery icon (I used it rather than the windows default battery icon because it displayed the number of minutes / % remaining in the icon rather than having to mouseover) and HD temp in the system tray. I heard that using both NHC and RMClock could cause some conflicts.

    Is it safe to use both? If not, is there a safe replacement to NHC that would provide similar functionality?

    Thanks for the help.

    It is safe; you may however run in to software conflicts if you try controlling voltages from both programs. Which brings me to the fact that NHC has voltage control.

    Thanks.

    I used RMClock primarily because the undervolting guide was written for it. Ah well.
