Windows only sees x20 multi?

I'm on windows 7 and in computer properties it shows 3.63 GHz when actually I'm at 3.8. I'm using x21 in bios but does windows only see x20? Is it because it doesn't detect the "turbo"?

Also, something weird: When I installed windows 7 my i7 was stock at 2.6Ghz and windows index gave it 7.7. I just ran the assessment at 3.8Ghz and received a score of 7.6. My ram was 1600Mhz 8-8-8-24-1T when I installed Windows and it got a score of 7.6. I just reran the test and I got 7.9 at 1450mhz 8-8-8-24-1T. What gives?

Windows has always only calculated clockspeed around the default multi...nothing new.

WEI scores are inconsistent.

Use Everest/MaxxMem/Super/HyperPI.

Mines does it also. And CCleaner reads it at 2.67 Ghz
