I guess my phone may lag with the screen off, but its hard to tell since the screen is off. Also lets say that when my battery is low I want it to last a long time. I can tell setcput to underclock to 745 mhz max when battery is under 20%. Now, it has been tested many times, an Evo running 745 to do normal tasks will not be laggy. You will notice lag when you are running games or apps, but if you are just making calls and texting, 745 works great. The Evo runs at 745 max when screen is on until it dies much later than it would have with the normal values.

I'm just getting into setCPU, downloaded it last night. Thanks for reminding me that I need to search for a thread that shares what settings/profiles other folks are using.
