I have a new Dell E1705 Laptop. It has a Intel Core Duo T2250, 1.73Ghz processor. However, when I look in Everest or CPU-Z, it says its running at 798.2 MHz with multiplier 6.0. Shouldnt that be multiplier 13.0? Or is there something I dont know about these Core Duo processors?
 
Is that when it is idle? There is the Intel EIST - their version of Cool n Quiet, that speed steps down the multi when idling to save power. Try loading up the processor and opening up CPU Z again and see if it doesn't speed up.
