Turbo Boost is supposed to be controlled by the OS, and there is a lot
of noise about it not working at all with linux. Has anyone here running
linux verified that Turbo Boost actually works?
AMD uses TurboCore, but I disable it on my boards and just up the clock
a couple hundred MHz. YMMV, make sure you have enough cooling if you do
this.
In the end, I don't think it is really going to make much difference one
way or another. A 4-8% cpu boost is nothing to get excited over, and
IMNSHO isn't going to be noticeable by the players.

Would Intel's Turbo Boost negatively affect server performance?
P.S. Intel Turbo Boost is a built-in feature of certain processors
that dynamically overclocks the base frequency of the processor (eg.
going from 3.50Ghz to 3.80Ghz) during periods of high load.
