when i should be getting 3.3ghz i know its seems like naff all
but obviously id like to try get to 3.3ghz

I think, unless you are pushing the CPU then you won't see it in CPU-z as it only boosts when needed, the clock you are seeing is pretty close to the non-turbo amount of 3ghz.

Run Prime 95 with CPUz as a window.

You will only see the maximum speed of 3.3GHz when a single threaded process is pushing the CPU. You should also make sure you have the latest BIOS installed as older versions may not properly support the turbo mode of newer processors.

This. Get something single threaded and heavily loading and fire it up. The chip will only hit 3.3GHz when it needs to, *and* if it has the power budget to spare. The fact that it's at 3192 means it's already using 2 of its 3 multiplier boosts, so turbo is definitely working - it just hasn't needed to hit maximum speed yet...
