So I recently put together a new system, and I am confuzzled. In my bios when i look through my "Motherboard intelligence tweaker" it says my clock speed is 2.66 ghz (333x8), and in windows (vista 64bit) it says Its running at 3.00 ghz.
Here are screenshots of what it says in bios and windows:

So does this mean my E8400 CPU is running at the 3.0ghz its supposed to or not?
And if it is running slow as i suspect, what changes do i make to make it run properly, as I am afraid of changing the wrong setting and blowing up my puter :{
any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
