Just picked up a Toshiba Satellite L755d-s5218 at worstbuy for $449. Anyone know if these processors can be set to run at the rated 2.3ghz at all times instead of pulling back to 1.4ghz? I would like to keep my new laptop running at 2.3 if possible --- thanks in advance for any help!

I can see the processor power states, but adjusting it down or up doesn't seem to adjust the cpu ghz at all...? Am I missing something?

If you have Catalyst Control Center (or AMD Vision Engine Control Center nowadays, comes with the video drivers) there should be a section where you can choose your min/max clocks for battery and plugged in.
