OK, so I just got another laptop for the office - a used Dell XPS M1330, I got it because it's small, light, (for off site presentations) and it was a good deal - $250.
It has an Intel Core2 Duo T7500 CPU, which is supposed to run at 2.2GHz on an 11x multiplier, at least according to specs. However, whenever I look at it with CoreTemp, etc, it tells me it's bouncing around anywhere from 1598MHz (8x multi) up to 1698MHz (8.5 multi)...this is with 100% loading on WCG.
Any ideas as to what's causing this? Or is this normal behavior for a laptop?
