It's somewhat strange it boots at 1200MHz; what are your BIOS

Perhaps all the BIOS vendor wants to support.  (Or can be supported
in combination with the motherboard)

Check for BIOS settings which may affect boot clock speed.

(Was it a warm boot or cold boot?)

Also check for potential BIOS upgrades..
