Incorrect Quad Core Setting?

[R1ch1ew]

Hi, this could be a dumb question, so here goes...

I've got an X9650 on standard settings, completely new build, in an Asus P5K Premium board (bios up to date) all settings untouched at the moment. I've just run CPU-Z and the core speed is showing up at 2000mhz (more detail below). When I look at the system details in 3Dmark06 it shows the core speed as 3000! Am a little confused!

Thanks in advance.


Core Speed 2000mhz
Multiplier x6.0
Bus Speed 333.3mhz
Rated FSB 1333.3mhz

Thanks for that, you're spot on! Ran a quick program and watched it leap up!

Thanks for the quick answer.
