cpu speed not right in windows

[roryson]

just put in another motherboard into my computer and in my system properties on windows 7 my processor speed is displayed at 2.31 but the actual speed of my processor 3.0. my motherboard is a GIGABYTE MA790X-DS4
and my processor is a 4 core AMD PHENOM II X4 940. had a snoop in my bios and the clock speed is set to 200mhz. is that the problem. could i use a bios update. the latest is a BETA...

sounds like your running cool"n"quiet
p2 is 2.3ghz

how do i go about changing it m8?

[riget]

should be fine with it on, to turn it off it's in the bios

[roryson]

if like u said that cool"n"quiet is making my processor run slow then i do have to turn it off. been on gigabyte's website and in the processor support page my processor is listed as compatable....

all sorted now. updated my BIOS and all fine. cheers for your help dude..
