How do you find out if your OSX86 is using speedstep?

I know on a Real mac, you processor is scaled down in performance when not in use, how do you fin out if it works on a hackintosh? I want my i7 to scale down when not in use to save energy.

CPU: Intel Core i7 920 @ 3.6 GHz
GPU: 2x SLI Dual GTX 260 (OpenCL working)(QE+CI)
RAM: 6GB DDR3 1600MHz 7-7-7-20

AUDIO: Realtek (5.1 config)
HDD: RAID 0- 1 + 1TB HDD's | 320GB HDD
MOBO: MSI X58 Platinum SLI (Intel ICH10)

All working

you are talking about speedstep i guess, check msr tools and cpu-i to see if your speedstep is on.

Both fail to work for some reason. I installed CPUi, but it says the kexts aren't loading. I have it in S/L/E/ and E/E
