Seems like a good thing.

AMD Cool?n?Quiet? Technology Overview

Suggest you do a "tasK" with it turned on & time it, do the same thing with it turned off.

I'd be interested to read your results.

As the world becomes increasingly energy conscious, AMD continues to make energy efficiency a priority. Advances like AMD's Cool'n'Quiet technology result in proven, measurable benefits for businesses and consumers, including reduced power usage, lower energy costs, and greener PC operation.

The way i see it is this.

Cool'n'Quite reduces the power so the overclocked cpu will be slowed down as well.

If you O/C for gaming you probably will not notice the difference as your cpu will be under load, and not idling along surfing the net or general computer usage (which is when C'n'Q kicks in).
