So I have an Intel i7-4702MQ listed at 2.2ghz(max) in a Lenovo Y510P. I've noticed a few times now that task manager has displayed the current speed at around 3ghz (give or take .1), and I'm curious to know if this is simply an inaccuracy on task manager's part. It hasn't been overclocked to my knowledge, and it's only about a month old.

Looks like turbo throttling to me. :)
