Turn PC off
Open your case.
Just below the 24 pin atx power connector is a small vertical switch marked 'slow mode'

Ensure its flicked down to the off position.

Restart PC.
Check your clocks under load again.

Can you show AMD Overdrive while you're benchmarking or playing a game, something that actually makes the CPU do some work. Idle temperatures aren't very helpful. Your benchmark indicated that your CPU clockspeed was staying at 1.4GHz, which indicates something is causing throttling. Either high temperatures, or maybe a power setting, make sure your Windows power setting isn't set to 'Power Saver' or anything like that.
