E6600 wrong FSB

CoreTemp detected my CPU E6600 properly. I didn't overcloked it so the FSB is at 266MHZ. But the multiplier is changed through Intel Speed Stepping from 9x to 6x.

So CoreTemp assumes a higher fsb instead of detecting the real fsb. Here is a screen:

Is this true if you close it and re-launch? On occasion, ct does something similar for me, but after I load it up a 2nd time it's fine.

I have the exact same problem.. but my E6600 is overclocked.

400Mhz fsb x 8 multiplier
3200Mhz

I have no idea were it is pulling these numbers... haha

The clock speed detection clearly needs updating

But I don't have the time to fully implement a change, as its a bit more complex than it may seem.
In the next version there should be a workaround for this, and hopefully it will work fine and detect proper speed.
