Description

Adjusts CPU frequency limits and power behavior from a graphical interface. It is useful for users who want to balance performance, heat, battery life, or fan noise without editing command-line settings.

CPU power changes can affect responsiveness, thermals, and battery life. Apply conservative settings first and keep a way to restore default governor behavior.
