How fast can you get from AMD Sempron 2.8Ghz CPU?

I installed AMD 2.8G sempron CPU. My windows XP reported the cpu speed
1.99Ghz.
How do I get 2.8Ghz? do I need to install the fastest MB and DDR2
memory?
I've installed Kingston PC400 DDR.

It's not a 2.8G processor. It's a 2800 series. The cpu speed that is
reported is correct. Unlike the Intel cpu's, the newer AMD number
designations don't correspond to the clock speed.

This is a sad day for Usenet... Must of us probably agree with you on this
post.

In case you didn't fully get JT's post - a 2800 series AMD is supposed to perform equivalent to an Intel 2.08 GhZ chip, while
running at the slower speed. ...but you still don't have a 2.8 GhZ machine. The fastest chip AMD makes is a 2.8 in the FX-62 dual
core, and I believe one other in a single core.
