Abstract

An example embodiment of a method and apparatus for dynamically changing computer system configuration to improve software application performance includes a system logic device that implements at least two different configurations. The system logic device may change configuration depending on what software application is running. The system logic device can change configurations while the computer system is running and may change configurations in order to optimize performance for whatever application is currently running.
