When your CPU isn't under heavy usage (such as in a game) it won't run at max clock because it doesn't need to. This saves energy and lengthens the life of your CPU.

If you find that even under heavy loads such as gaming that your CPU isn't reaching maximum clocks, you might try disabling Cool & Quiet.
