CPU Clock Speed?

You have a mix of older Dell XPS models and a modern setup. The 420 model with the mini display and solitaire is worth keeping for its nostalgic appeal. The Q6600 achieved a 1495 MHz on Cinibench R23, while the Q8200 ran at 2.3 GHz max. However, Cinibench R23 shows 3.0 GHz with the tape mode, but other programs report 2.33 GHz. For everyday tasks, stick to the system clock of your main processor (10700K @ 5.0 GHz). Your overall setup includes a 3000MHz Vega 64 with 4GB RAM and a liquid cooler, which should handle most daily activities smoothly.

Consider using HWinfo64 for better accuracy. HWMonitor may give incorrect sensor data, so don't depend on its readings. I really wish I could launch Cinebench R23, but it won't start on my PC. It works fine on my laptop instead.

I think it should verify this in the same way now.

It looks like you want a rephrased version of your sentence. Here it is:

You can verify this just to be certain.

Even HWinfo64 shows 2.33ghz, which is odd since Cinibench version 23 claims 3.0ghz. I had to rely on HWinfo64 because other programs didn’t display clock or temperature data during my bench testing at that time.

It's possible Cinebench doesn't match the clock speed listed for the Q8200 as reported by Intel.

also tried the tape modification on both the Q6600 and Q8200 to check compatibility with the Q8200, since CPUZ mentioned the OC on the Q6600

It performed better on R23 above 1600 compared to the Q6600 at 1495
