I can reproduce this: a non-overclocked Core 2 Duo E8500 running Hardy
has two speeds available: 2.00 GHz and 3.00 GHz. The actual speed of
3.16GHz can only be obtained by disabling frequency scaling in the BIOS
settings.

analyzing CPU 0:
driver: acpi-cpufreq
CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 0
hardware limits: 2.00 GHz - 3.00 GHz
available frequency steps: 3.00 GHz, 2.00 GHz
available cpufreq governors: userspace, powersave, ondemand, conservative,
performance
current policy: frequency should be within 2.00 GHz and 3.00 GHz.
The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 2.00 GHz.
analyzing CPU 1:
driver: acpi-cpufreq
CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 1
hardware limits: 2.00 GHz - 3.00 GHz
available frequency steps: 3.00 GHz, 2.00 GHz
available cpufreq governors: userspace, powersave, ondemand, conservative,
performance
current policy: frequency should be within 2.00 GHz and 3.00 GHz.
The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 2.00 GHz.
