So I'm new to the i7 racket as of the beginning of this month considering I upgraded from an AMD 3200+... I don't don't know the absolute specifics of the i7 tech. So I turned on CPU-Z and noticed the Core speed is 2800-2900mhz. Also, coretemp is registering my 920 as an ES? Is this normal or is it because Im on windows7 x64? Maybe im reading it wrong? (im a non-overclocker and dont plan on OC'ing this chip.. sorry guys!)

21x multi is your stock multi.

The link you showed me looks retail to me.

ES's clear say ES on them:

i7 920, the multiplier is 20x and 21x with turbo (but core 1 runs a 22x multipler according to e-leet)
