 Ok, I am able to activate C3 state after loader.conf tweaks. According 
 to http://www.intel.com/technology/turboboost/
 
 Intel Turbo Boost Technology is activated when the Operating System (OS) 
 requests the highest processor performance state (P0).
 
 I have no clue about P0 state activation on FreeBSD.
