I know this is a bit OT, but the subject of CPU speed came up here and I was (and have been for some time) curious:
What is the actual speed of an AMD CPU? E.g., I have a Athlon 64 X2 "4200+" but my /proc/cpuinfo shows 1005.164 MHz for the two cores.
What do those mean? Is there a reference for this (huge) discrepancy?
Also, is there a way (and what) to tell what the actuall running speed of memory is?
Thanks.
