+@item @command{rdmsr}: read MSRs from any CPU or all CPUs
+@item @command{wrmsr}: write to MSRs on any CPU or all CPUs
+@end itemize
+
+These tools can be used to query and modify certain low-level CPU parameters,
+such as the Turbo Boost ratio and Thermal Design Power (@dfn{TDP}) limits.
+
+MSR addresses differ (greatly) between processors, and any such modification can
+be dangerous and may void your CPU or system board's warranty.")
