This is what CPUZ is reporting so It looks correct. 12a7cb49e2.png

 

 

So is it a fluke with task manager?

Yeah, your cpu isn't actually running at 5ghz. CPUZ is displaying the correct numbers.

Windows is Reporting 5GHZ but i set the multiplier to 45x100mhz 

Is this correct? I already rebooted.

Do you have speedstep and other weird power saving/boosting BIOS settings on? Try to do what you know how to do manually.
