What's the Multi, Bus Speed and FSB? Probably Speedstep

That would be intel speed step!Basically what it does is when your not using all your CPU usage, like say if your just browsing the web it will jack down the multiplier a little. But when you are playing games it will run at 2.6 GHz.
It is perfectly normal.
I am not sure what it's called in the BIOS but you can disable it certainly. At least someone on these forums will know what it is. Might just have to wait 'til they reply.

yea, the cpu would just clock it self back to save energy, and to reduce the heat inside the case. It would speed up to 2.6 if the computer is under load.

I have the same with my pc (well, almost 
) when just running CPU-Z, it says 2.6GHz for my pc (the normal clock) but with a 400MHz bus speed, and a 6x multiplier. when I run superpi tough, it goes to 400 x9 (3600MHz 
)
so, my suggestion, run Super-Pi while having the cpu-z window open, you should see it switch then (if its indeed the speed step thingy)

Yea and if you're looking for the setting in BIOS, it's probably called EIST.
