Woops. "Turbo Boost" is something else, which I have turned off. I think
it's "Speed Step" that automatically jumps to the higher clock multiplier.
Turbo Boost is apparently for single threaded apps, so that they can get
more power from one core, and keeping the other 3 essentially turned off.
At stock voltages, turbo boost would take a 2.8GHz system and turn up the
clock on one of the cores to reach 3.5GHz or so. I haven't played around
with it, though. Maybe later.
