asus a7v133 reporting wrong cpu speed?

[Daedalus]

my system:
duron 800@1000 superorb
geforce 2 pro 32mb (240/400)
asus a7v-133
384mb ram
seagate barracuda 3 30gb
win2k

drivers:
nvidia 12.41 official
via 4in1 432
liveware 3 for win2k
direct x 8

i know this is trivial but when i clock my duron at 8.0x124, the speed should be 982mhz, but my mobo reports 981mhz.

this is kinda wierd

The Clock Speed of all processors varies a little bit, all day long. If the CPU is at 731.5, how does this get reported? 731 or 732. Yes, this is indeed a trivial concern.
