I think my core speed is too low on my Q6600 - Please help

Hi,
I have a Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR 95W Edition with a ASUS PK5 MB.

I just downloaded CPU-Z and it tell me that my core is running at 268.3 x 6 which is 1603.98 MHz.

How do I get it to run at the standard 2.4Ghz?

Thanks in advance

Sorry Rob can I just ask,

I have located the C1E in the Bios under CPU configuration but I can not see EIST.

What is EIST - is it the intet Speedstep thing?

Thanks

Hi Rob,
Sorry found it now, just read the MB manual, and it is the Intel Speedstep.

Turned it off and all is well.

Thanks again
