Tell that to my system: # dmesg | grep -i -e tsc -e ^cpu0 cpu0 at mainbus0 apid 0: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU W3520 @ 2.67GHz, id 0x106a5 timecounter: Timecounter "TSC" frequency 4276519600 Hz quality 3000 Sometimes it's correct, but most of the time it claims a too high number; the 4.2GHz appeared only recently, before it was in the 3GHz range.
