AMD PowerNow! Technology (Cool ‘n’ Quiet Technology)
Automatically and instantaneously adjusts performance states and features based on processor performance requirements
C6 power state for cache flush and voltage down individual cores
CC6 power state allows all cores in C6 to power even lower for quieter operation and reduced power requirements
Separate memory controller power control
I/O-based c-state interface
Works automatically without the need for drivers or BIOS enablement
Power can be switched on or off within a single clock cycle, saving energy with no impact on performance
