Your machine shows 2.5GHz where? Doesn't show the actual turbo speed where?
This is a very complicated feature and what is achievable at any point in time is dependent upon a lot of criteria including number of cores active, temperatures of these cores, etc. Shoving some sort of load on the system and expecting to see the max turbo speed just isn't going to happen. The max turbo speed only happens when there is only a single core active and temperatures show elbow room for this core to be overclocked.
For more information (get ready to do a lot of reading; this isn't a simple thing), consult these sources:
- What is Intel Turbo Boost Technology and How Does it Work?
- Why Am I Not Getting the Intel Turbo Boost Frequency?
- My Intel Core Processor Does Not Reach the Maximum Turbo Boost Frequency
- Frequently Asked Questions for Intel Turbo Boost Technology
- Frequently Asked Questions About Temperature for Intel Processors
Hope this helps,
