Hi, I’m new to CPU performance details. My motherboard’s OC setting is off, yet Task Manager shows my CPU running faster than the stock speed. Am I misinterpreting the Task Manager results, or is there another reason? This is the first time I’ve noticed this while trying to check CPU and RAM usage before deciding on an upgrade. Thanks!

Max turbo frequency during normal use reaches 4.7ghz according to Intel's specifications.

Ah, I've been operating at or near 4.7 for about four years... wow! I assumed the standard was 3.7, so I didn't need to add extra voltage to raise it. That's reassuring. Thanks!
