What's the deal with variable bus timing?
I could be wrong here but maybe some of the techies
can correct me:
Isn't variable bus timing the same (or similar) to
speedstep technology on the higher end Pentium mobile
processors?
Speedstep technology determines what you are running (in terms
of active applications) at a given point in time and adjusts
the computing cycles so the processor draws less power when running relatively non-power hungry programs and therefor
battery life is prolonged.
How is this different from variable bus timing as it has been explained in preview articles?
Please give me some insight.
