Possible to further undervolting for X60s

hi,
just wonder any one of the X60s users undervolt their thinkpad since it is using Low voltage processor?

Good question. in the penitum M days there was a program called centrino hardware control that let you do this, but I dont know if one like this exists for the Duo.

If I remember correctly, the centrino control utility made the cpu run at .7 volts. What does the core duo L run at?

.9V is the lowest Core CPUs will undervolt to.

Is that just for the normal CoreDuos or even the LV CoreDuos?

You can undervolt via Notebook Hardware Control (NHC) or with RMClock. You can google for links.

The NHC/RMClock answer was for someone else.... the answer to your question was answered by me a couple of posts up.

Using the power manager, setting the cpu to "lowest power" will do this. Setting it to "adaptive" will undervolt to .9V under low cpu load.
