I will post back here soon with results on that.

I'd also like to note that no matter what turbo frequency you set in the
EFI, Linux reads the CPU speed as 3301 MHz. I know that my overclock is
functional because I've tested using benchmarking programs (superpi and
Prime95 and I get consistent and predictable results (IE, 4.4 GHz gets
me 33% better times than 3.3 GHz). Basically 3300 MHz = 3.3 GHz and 3301
MHz = whatever you set your turbo speed to.

As a side note, lm-sensors is also broken and doesn't correctly detect
the required modules, you need to add the modules coretemp and pkgtemp
if you want temperature monitoring. (Just a tip for you).

Thanks for taking an interest!
