Claim 19:
20. A system, comprising:
a first processor coupled to a printed circuit board;
a second processor coupled to the printed circuit board; and
a controller that distributes extra available power from the first processor to the second processor when the system is in operation by:
detecting a first amount of power being used by the first processor;
causing one or more other components of the computing device to be put to sleep;
determining a first amount of extra power available based on a difference between the first amount of power and a power budget associated with the first processor and the one or more other components; and
transmitting, to a driver associated with the second processor, a first value indicating the first amount of extra power available, wherein the driver adjusts at least one operating parameter of the second processor based on the first amount of extra power available.
