your dmesg will have a "Enhanced SpeedStep" line, for example: cpu0: Enhanced SpeedStep 2494 MHz: speeds: 2601, 2600, 2500, 2300, 2100, 2000, 1800, 1700, 1500, 1400, 1200, 1100, 900, 800, 600, 500 MHz hw.cpuspeed is only updated when a set speed is selected by the kernel. With turbo mode the hardware continually changes the speed without notifying the kernel. to force the lowest non-turbo mode sysctl hw.perfpolicy=manual sysctl hw.setperf=0
