I've noticed that with my new chip (an E2220) anything that reads the chip speed in windows reports it wrong. I know that my chip right now is running at 11x250 (2750Mhz) so why does everything read 3GHZ? Thanx for any ideas, ave
edit to add: cpu-z get's it rite. -- Prejudice against alternate consciousness would probably make JFK laugh at you; And Carl Sagan would probably say you have a blindspot. And I say you are judging this book by it's cover.
Because most of them are reading the FSB speed and taking that against the stock multiplier of the chip. I guess they're operating under the assumption that someone isn't going to run a lower mulitiplier.
Edit: That, or they ignore changes in multiplier to account for speed step/cool'n'quiet.
