Faulty CPU?

OK, i was about to post my super pi score, and as my screenshot button on my keyboard doesn't work i was typeing in my CPU-Z window and i noticed something pretty worrying.

My CPU is an Intel E6750, stock it is clocked at 2.66GHz, which i have it at with 1333MHz FSB, the clock though is only at 2GHz and randomly will go to 2.66GHz, to me this says it is faulty.

I think i should also make a point here of saying that recently stuff has been freezeing, Call of Duty, firefox, my entire system has. I tried setting my xbox up to my system with the media PC thing, every time i went through step 1 it would freeze up.

It is with the system that i have posted below, do any of you have any thoughts on this because i really cannot afford a new processor and am pretty darn worried about this now.
 
Speed Step Enabled by chance?

hehe ye i was just logged on to post that. I went into my bios to see if that was reading 2GHz aswell then it occured to me that i turned it on a couple weeks ago to see if it changed power consumption, temperatures etc that much, so yes, my processor is fine, it was me being a clumsy idiot :P
