Another thing. Is this going to be harmful if I enable AMD's
Cool'n'Quiet in its CMOS and use PowerNow-k8 module? I used to use it in
the past, but currently disabled for testingn purposes.
modprobe powernow-k8
echo ondemand >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/ignore_nice_load
