CPU Speed by
Daniel
Hi
I have Vista Ultimate.
My CPU is a Pent D Extreme Edition 3.2 Ghz, when I run CPU-Z it shows Core
Speed
at 2800.4 or lower, dropping below 2798.1 at times.
Why is that, how do I get it to run at 3200 all the time?

I have two spare CPU's and am not certain which one will give me the best
