RightMark CPU Clock Utility 2.30 Released

RightMark CPU Clock Utility (RMClock) is a small GUI application designed for real-time CPU frequency, throttling and load level monitoring and on-the-fly adjustment of the CPU performance level on supported CPU models via processor's power management model-specific registers (MSRs). In automatic management mode it continuously monitors the CPU usage level and dynamically adjusts the CPU frequency, throttle and/or voltage level as needed, realizing the "Performance on Demand" concept.

The basic version of the utility is freely available for downloading at the official website.

The RMClock Professional, which offers more features and is supplied as an application add-in (DLL module) for the basic RMClock package, is available for purchase at share-it!
