An information handling system employs low-power processing. In a particular form, an information handling system can include a processing system configured operate using a power system configured to power a shared resource of the processing system and a non-shared resource of the processing system. The information handling system can also include a low-power processing system configured to access the shared resource of the processing system during operation of the low-power processing system. The operation of the low-power processing system can be separate from the operation of the processing system. The information handling system can also include a chipset including a processor of the processing system and operable to be enabled during operation of the processing system. The processor can be configured to be disabled during operation of the low-power processing system.
