Seriously though, right click on your computer and select properties. It should display your current clock speed, so find out the original clock speed, multiply it by .1, subtract, and there's your answer!

CPU is I-5 3570k @ 3.40 so should be 3.74. Will give it a shot just as soon as I get system set up. Thanks
