This is a picture from the Computer Properties and the BIOS reflects this same number too, even after following the steps to enable level 1 overclocking.
ah ok, it seems my cpu is overclocked then even though my bios and windows says otherwise(which is strange because my 630i actually recorded the changes...). Ok then one less thing to worry about, thank you.
ouch all they did was up the multi on the unlocked multiplyer on the cpu how much did they charge you for that? That is a very easy overclock for an i7 980x extreme.... Many of them will hit 4-4.2ghz on average just upping the multi alone without tweaking any of the voltage settings or messing with qpi or ram settings.

That screen you are in will give u the stock (rated) speed of the chip you are running.Don't know about the BIOS though. Download CPU-Z.
