Not a bad site.
Its rated at 2.5ghz because of your processor type. For example, my AMD processor that is considered 2.12ghz is actually considered somewhere around 2.8ghz when comparing with the recommended 3.0ghz Intel processor. Certain processors may seem considerably lower in speed just by the numbers, but that isn't the real case. I don't know where the difference in speeds came up, or why it does, but different processor types have their own measuring system for power it seems.
