    Go into the BIOS and check what the FSB & multiplier is. That's really odd. It looks like a custom built PC, no OEM logo, is that right?

    ah come on, there not that bad.

    Run some Benchmarks (PCmark2002) post your scores and ill tell you if it’s actually being overclocked (although I can guarantee you now that its not).
