    The max multiplier of the T9400 is 9.5x, and RMClock does not recognise half multipliers, so the max recgonised for your CPU is 9x.

    266*9.5 = 2527 (2.53GHz)
    266*9.0 = 2394 (2.39GHz)

    IDA is a work-around, but is said to be buggy !!

    A 140MHz slowdown per core ain't gonna make a difference in performance.

    If your reading the 2.53ghz from ORTHOS then that would be incorrect. ORTHOS will always display the max speed of your CPU.

    Use CPU-z

    during the stress testing, it showed 252X mhz of cpu speed... well, i hope the problem has been fixed, im just trying to confirm im running at 2.53ghz.

    If you underclock your notebook with rightmark you will only get 2.39ghz guess we have to wait for a update to support half multipliers. I tryed crystalcpuid it has the half multipliers but when i try and use it i get Bsod.
