Description : daemon for frequency and voltage control of AMD K8 CPUs
with undervolting/overvolting capability
cpupowerd can be used with AMD K8 processors to adjust the CPU frequency
and voltage dynamically.
It can be run as a daemon that dynamically adjusts the processor state
according to load.
.
It's capabilities include overvolting as well as undervolting. This means
you can use it to run your processor at a voltage lower than what it is
supposed to run at according to it's specifications and make it run cooler
and with lower power consumption. WARNING: Doing this could cause damage to
your hardware so only do it if you know what you're doing and are willing to
accept the risk.
.
Currently it supports only AMD K8 processors like Athlon, Athlon64 (X2),
Sempron, Opteron, Turion...

The AMD K8 was discontinued in 2014 so I don't think there is need for
this software anymore (alternatives already exists).
