Note: The processor FSB frequency is not altered; only the internal core
frequency is changed. When entering the low power state, the processor first
switches to the lower bus to core frequency ratio and then transitions to the
lower voltage.
While in the Extended HALT state, the processor will process bus snoops.
For more information about power saving modes, refer to the Intel Xeon 7200
and 7300 Processor Series Datasheet:

Important: All changes you make within the BIOS affects the particular local
node only. Any changes you make must also be made on all nodes within a
multinode configuration. Although you may have different settings on different
nodes, it is not recommended.
