Setting Up and Using Your Computer
Enabling Cool ’n’ Quiet™ Technology
The Cool ’n’ Quiet technology controls your computer’s processor performance automatically,
dynamically adjusting the operating frequency and voltage, according to the task at hand. When an

and automatic power savings when possible.
