    Hi People,

    Note: I tried extensively to search for an answer to my query, but somehow I could not see it or I did not understand properly. :( :( Hence this new topic.

    Can someone please tell me in simple words or a simple tool to to check the processor speed I am running right now? I mean I can check in system properties or various other tools, but I see 2.6 GHz and another 2.6 GHz next to it (particularly in system properties window). Now how do I check the speed at which the processor is running at a given time? Someone mentioned around here about being able to see it, but I am not able to find that thread and if I remember correctly, they didn't actually mention the tool by which we can see that.

    Thank you very much. :)
