Diablo 3 Beta Download
Why does this beta test say my CPU speed is 1.7?
On a blizzard beta test, they send you a scan to specify your computer settings and it says my CPU speed is 1.7 which seems very slow. I've had a few games pass here and there but no viruses. And when I play games my computer is always fast so I'm wondering why it is at 1.7 Ghz when it should be very close to 3.0. I currently have Diablo II and Starcraft II as my games on here now, and im downloading Team Fortress II as I type right now, could that be the problem? Again, no virusus.
My computer is an ASUS G73 Stealth laptop. It has an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870 Graphics with plenty of memory and RAM.
computer has Twin Turbo Speed, but it's on at the moment, while it was scanning, and the scan said 1.7 GHz, and the same when it was off
Because at the time you ran the test that was what your CPU said it was. The stock CPU in that model seems to be a i7 @ 1.6GHz. Your laptop is set up so that when it isn't doing calculation heavy processes (like ruining the system detector software) it uses this clock speed to prolong battery life. In calculation heavy applications it will turn on "turbo" and the clock speed will jump to the 2.8Ghz. having turbo "on" doesn't change the CPU to always use the higher clock setting. It only enables your laptop to make the change when it deems appropriate.
Depending on how the system detector is set to dig out information even if have turbo engaged (running Starcraft 2 while detecting) you may not see the higher clock speed recorded. This would be because the detector is looking at the normal settings rather then taking the current conditions in to account.
Diablo 2 isn't worthy of note in this case as it will run on a CPU of 233MHz (0.233Ghz) Starcraft 2 on the other hand is as it needs 2.6GHz and likely wouldn't run if turbo didn't work. Video card and ram aren't relevant to your CPU speed.

StarCraft 2 was the last big exclusive. The next big one is Knights of the Old Republic and Diablo 3 and the part2 and 3 of StarCraft2. There are various other exclusives from third parties and they’re primarily for the PC.
That would be able to play Diablo 3 or Borderlands with those integrated Intel graphics. The processor is low-end as well.
Since you cannot upgrade this laptop's graphics, most likely you cannot play either game unless you get a new pc…
