DESCRIPTION
CPU Speed Menu allows you to switch between the different performance settings of your computer by a single mouse click. It is no longer necessary to open System Preferences, navigating to the Energy Saver pane and selecting the Options item. This is helpful for users who must switch between different speed settings very often, for example when temporarily performing processor-intensive tasks. Switching manually to a speed which meets your current needs best can improve battery load on portable computers, or avoid noise problems with cooling fans and power supply units on desktop computers. This tool does not need any space in the Dock and does not consume processing power while it is running in the background.

You can download the application CPU Speed Menu for free. This allows you to evaluate the software to see if it suits your needs. The only restrictions are:

  • The application will quit after running five (5) minutes.
  • A demo mode panel will appear each time you launch the application.

    -=SABOR=-  Oh come on. You get the *same* functionality by having the Energy Saver menu item!!! It takes ONE click to move from Better Performance to Better Energy Saver w/o any 3rd party tool installed. Don't tell me you did not know this before writing this software?  (Version 1.2)

    ANONYMOUS  Stop posting this "FastAndSlow" crap. FastAndSlow is a very poor alternative. Its installer might crash, it doesn't work correctly on PowerMacs, it installs a MenuCracker which will patch your system, it might open a security hole which is confirmed by the author, it has no reference manual, etc. You get what you pay for...  (Version 1.1)
