I highly doubt its 4.2Ghz, it would take a lot of extra voltage to boot at 4.2Ghz vs 3.8Ghz, more than enough voltage that you wouldn't have given it enough extra to even be possible.
But what i would really be questioning is that the FSB speeds from CPUZ(475) vs CoreTemp(534) are way different but both are reporting a 8x multi.
Who knows, see what your fsb in your bios says and go with whats reporting correctly.
well my bios says 475 x 8... but if you multiply 475 x 9 it will give you the 4.2 that windows is posting... So that is the case. is like a related mult problem xDD.
CPU-Z has the correct read.
Windows and Core Temp both do not read the clock speed correctly. 99.9 percent of the time, CPU-Z is always right.

They all read the same ouput AFAIK.Quote:
