> Can you just run CPU-Z on it?

Yes & No, CPU-Z will only tell you what the current clock speed of the CPU. On the Sandybridge CPUs you overclock the turbo mode, so if there is no load on the CPU it will clock itself back to ~1.6ghz, put load on the CPU with CPU-Z open and you can see CPU crank up to what ever the overclock speed is.

It's kind of a nice feature, stops the CPU from being stress out unless it's under heavy load,and cuts down of the power usage.


If all else fails, Burn the manual.
