i was trying to undervoltage and everything was going quite well but after some testing i noticed a difference in numbers between the following 2 programs.
on this picture you see mobile meter and rm clock but they bout give other values about my core speed and temp .the question is simple :wish is correct??

Were they both benchmarked with the maximum power settings?
The best answer I can come up with:
It looks like you ran the "Rightmark" program on battery an not AC with might have auto changed power profile. I doubt thats the case but it's the best reason I can come up with.
I think the "StatBar" program is more accurate. -
statbar doesnt give clock speed and core temp .
it arent any benchmarks and they were running on the same moment.
the problem is that i want to look at temperature changes when undervolted and when not but both programs give me differnt numbers.
and the left one says iam running at 1.8 ghz and the right says 1ghz
so iam confused alot now -
Though I don't understand Japanese, according to the website for MobileMeter, the last update done was in 2004/02/16 for v0.3.1.0. I would then suspect that MobileMeter wouldn't support dual core processors or the newer motherboards and chipsets, which then explains why MobileMeter was providing in-accurate clockspeed/temperature readings. RMClock on the other had has been updated and does support Dual Core chips and the newer chipsets, and thus is able to provide accurate info. You can confirm this using a third monitoring application, such Notebook Hardware Control.
cheers! -
It's almost impossible to tell by just the screenshot tho. -
yeah the problem is solved now .iam using NHC and mobile meter and they give the same numbers .
but i have a idle temp of 50°C and underload i have 60°C.these are numbers from after undervolting .are they oke ?
is it normal that i cant change the lowest multiplier 6x it always stays on 0.9500v i cant go any lower on it .
so that means i wouldnt have any temp or batterylife gains when my laptop is on idle mostly .
just for information i have thee 12x multiplier set to 1.0375V. -
I've set my voltages as follows:
(FID) (VID)
6.0x 0.950V
7.0x 0.975V
8.0x 1.000V
9.0x 1.025V
10.0x 1.050V
11.0x 1.075V
12.0x 1.100V
You can't change your lowest multiplier to be lower than 0.950v. I get idle/load temperatures similar to yours, so you should be ok.
cheers! -
so how does undervolting helps you with batterylife than ?
i mean normally when your on battery you dont do any intensive work so your mostly in the region of fid = 6x or 7x and if you cant lower the 0.950 you cant have that much gains .
you only get battery life gains if you are working harder on the cpu like fid=12x
my complete list is
fid vid
6x 0.9500
7x 0.9625
8x 0.9750
9x 1.0000
10x 1.0250
11x 1.0375
no problems with these numbers. going to lower 11x 1step i think i think -
I'd think that undervolting would help more with temperatures than with battery-life. It might only help with batterylife if you keep it at the lowest multiplier on bettery so that even if you do CPU-intensive work, it wouldn't ramp up. What could actually help with battery life would be if the voltage could actually be lowered to less than 0.95v, but unlike for the older Pentium M (i think), this isn't possible for the CoreDuo CPUs.
The reduction is temperatures might be more apparent though.
wish is correct :mobile meter VS RMclock
