OK cool, glad you are getting there. The power saving is a bit of a joke, if people wanted a lower speed machine, surely they'd save the cash & buy a cheaper server as opposed to hamstringing a decent box...

On some server hardware (can't remember which models) you need to check the power saving in the bios as well as windows. The easiset way can be to download cpuz & see what speed the cpu's are running at.
