I have an AMD FX-6300 CPU, non-overclocked.
I have all power saving features such as C1E turned off in the BIOS. I have also disabled turbo-boost.
At stock settings, this CPU should run at 3500Mhz(3.5Ghz). However, using lscpu
in Ubuntu shows that the CPU is running at 3511.588Mhz.
I should also mention that HWmonitor on Windows 7 reports similar results.
Does my CPU just have an awful clock crystal? What's going on here?

if you read it with any real precision. Most apps round to the Tenths position, or even to the ones position, but it is the app that is reducing the precision. any reading that gives you a nice round number is more suspect than one rounded to the thousandths or beyond as you show.
