As far as I know none of them depends on chipset or motherboard, the
CPU itself handles the power state transitions alone.
Anyway the phenom program (PWR) works on both desktop and notebook
systems, since in case of phenoms power state transitions are based on
"fire and forget" style, since all the p-state parameters (voltage and
frequency combinations, and everything else) are preconfigured by AMD.
On Athlon64 architecture the situation is more complicated because you
have to provide the appropriate parameters. Since I have no desktop
Athlon64 system I cannot make assumptions about safe power saving
voltage and frequency combinations. But if someone can provide me
them, I can integrate them.

Thank you for the information, I will check on these programs!

The Rotary Chamber Machine is my father's innovation, I only helped
him in programming. If you really interested in the ideas, of course
you can contact him. He is very helpful. Sorry, I'm not an engineer :)
