I've taken some basic power measurements. Not particularly scientific or accurate, just watching the numbers fluctuate on my power plug meter. I've not looked into this before so I really didn't know whether the difference would be tens of watts or milliwatts. I booted with just C6 package disabled and it hovered around 64.5W. With C6 entirely disabled, it went up to 70W. With C6 entirely enabled, it was around 63.5W. So C6 Package hardly makes any difference. I made these changes with zenstates.py rather than the BIOS for this test.
