I've Core2Duo E7400 2.80GHz processor on my Intel D945gcnl mobo. From CPU-Z, I've get to know that my processor speed is 1596MHz with X6 multiplier and 266MHz Bus Speed on each core.
Why my processor is being operated at 1596 MHz rather than 2.80GHz...!!????
From my side I've tried to disable SpeedStep from my bios by setting EIST to 'Disable' and also tried to change Power Option to 'High Performance' in Windows 7. And also done like suggested in this question:http://superuser.com/questions/119176/processor-not-running-at-max-speed
But it gains me nothing.
I've also tried to run few massive applications together to check whether it was increasing at that time or not, but it remains same.
Should I have to increase my multiplier or overclock to gain that lost speed...??? Should I have to check my power supply for any problem..??? or anything else...???
Please help me on this....
And yeah I've desktop computer so no problem causing by battery.
