The settings are expressed as a percentage between the normal CPU clock speed and the CPU clock speed when the computer is in the power- conserving state. The settings are 0-12.5%, 12.5-25%, 25- 37.5%, 37.5-50%, 50-62.5%, 62.5-75% and 75-87.5%. The Optimal and Fail-Safe default setting is 50-62.5%.
