Dear experts

I was wondering in cpu-z my cpu frequencies shows "Freq : 1197.22 MHz (199.52 * 6)" and my one is a TOSHIBA Satallite u500 laptop consisting core 2 Duo T6600 @2.20 GHz. While I play games like fifa13 or others high definition games...sometimes it lags and processor usage shows full. here is a link of CPUZ on my pc preview. Is there something wrong with the processor? Looking forward to get help.
Thank in advance :D

It's just not frequency. You gotta look at others factors such as, Hyper-Threading Technology, Turbo-Boost Technology and how much cores does your processor have. In this generation, Dual-Core 3.0GHz+ CPU's are being required as a minimum, so look at that. Remember, your processor processes everything from Audio, Visuals, and other factors I won't go through. Try to lower your resolution on the game and it will perform way better. Don't take this as an offense, but my iPhone 5 delivers more productivity than your CPU according to benchmarks:

You need an upgrade my friend. Don't expect much gaming performance on that CPU.
