Re: drop in idle power after overclocking hd 4200 WHY?

Hi All, I found that after overclocking my HD 4200 IGP from 500 to 800Mhz that my idle power dropped from 35W to 32W at the outlet. What is up with that?

Is there a more powerful program than CnQ that can allow me to undervolt the CPU when it is idle as well. I have a Athlon II X3 425 and Asus m3...
