Description

Intel processor frequency behavior can be controlled by regular users through a command-line helper extracted from the GNOME CPU Power Manager extension. It is useful for tuning performance and power without opening the original extension UI.

Frequency changes can affect battery life, heat, responsiveness, and stability. Test settings gradually and know how to restore defaults.
