ML: Native Ivy Bridge CPU and GPU Power Management

[RehabMan]

yes it works great!

but i can't see if my TDP is correct.

ssdtPRgen.sh used 35. According to Intel, it is correct: http://ark.intel.com/products/67355/Intel-Core-i5-3210M-Processor-(3M-Cache-up-to-3_10-GHz-rPGA

yes I know.

but as I can check, if is in use 35w?

Not really a software thing. The chip is what it is. SSDT just describes how much power each state might use... not sure if OS X even uses that information.

hmm..
downloaded the app Intel (R) Power Gadget.
and believe should even are using 35W. look.

and according MSRDumper, that's right.

But...again...Thanks RehabMan!!

RehabMan I found another thing that was giving error states.

when I edit SSDT and exclude states that do not use (e.g 1100, 1000, 900, 800MHz)
I have problem in state stuck 700Mhz.

because I have this problem? if my CPU the default state begins with 1200?

delete the other 4 should not make any difference.

Only a guess.... when you're 'removing states' are you also changing the Package size as appropriate?

Yes.
when it is generated, have 25 states, and 5 of them I do not use


0x19 = 25, update 0x14 = 20.

 

[Allan Oliveira]

why this problem appears?

I think you'll run into issues deleting the low-frequency states without changing APLF.

Why are you attempting this anyway? Is there some purpose?

APLF?? the number 0x04, it means something?

I do it for study.
