Is there a command to view current cpu clock speed?

I have a cpu that can turbo boost but I wanted to see if there was a way to view the current cpu clock speed?

Kinda like the task manager in windows where you see current clocks but on pfsense. Is it a special command/package i need?

[2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT][root@xtm800.stevew.lan]/root: sysctl dev.cpu.0.freq
dev.cpu.0.freq: 3201

Note that is indicating 3.2GHz with Turbo. The extra 1 shows turbo is enabled.

The dashboard will also show it at anything less than maximum speed:

Thanks guys!!

Also you must enable powerd in Sys > Adv > Misc to see variable clock speed.
