Best CPU speed monitoring software?

[Mark R]

Got a C2D on a Asus P5B deluxe.

I'm looking for something to just get system stats/speed.

Currently, only TAT seems to accurately measure the CPU speed. I've tried CPU-Z and Sandra and their results are just random and bear no relation to actual CPU speed.

I'm currently running at 400x8, while CPU-Z will occasionally report 3200 MHz, most of the time it reports 2400 and occasionally 3600 MHz. Sandra reports 3600 MHz, and all it's FSB speed, RAM speed reports are completly screwed up (e.g. 225 MHz FSB, 900 MHz RAM, etc.)

Any other software that's got a good reputation?

Are you using an E6600? Most of the programs won't take in to account if you lowered the multiplier yourself..they see the default 9x multi, and multipy it by the FSB, so thats the reason they will show 3600mhz rather than 3200mhz. Are you using a recent version of CPUz, sound like you are probably using an older version. Also, do you have speedstep disabled?
