Zen, does your "About this Mac" and or hardware monitor show your computer OC past 4.2 Ghz?
Nope.
The "About this Mac" is just cosmetic. It doesn't show the real speed.
If you search the forum you'll find risky ways to change the values to show the OC. IMO, It doesn't worth the risk.
I'm not sure but If I remember, the "about this mac" gets the information from the system profile which is crucial for the system stability because it has all the parameters of your mac. If you chose the wrong system profile or mess it up, you'll probably get kernel panic.
