MBA2012 cpu multiplier wrong and no turbo boost in Windows7

MBA2012 Corei 7 2.0GHz/ MEM 8GB / SSD 128G.

core i7 3667U, it support turbo boost, max multiplier 3.2GHz (x32, 2core), or 3.0GHz(x30, 1core).

but check cpu-z 1.60.1.x64, it reports cpu multiplier x8 or x19.

core speed does not rearch 2.0GHz(x20) and can not turbo boost.

*Finally* the cpu multiplier issue is fixed by Apple, hurrah! I'd almost give up hope, but now I can feel genuinly glad I bought the 2Ghz i7 model! :-)

Works for Windows 8 Consumer Preview as well!
