Are the clock speeds you listed base or turbo numbers (3.4, 2.25 and 2.0 Ghz)?

CPU Data sheets provide more details.

Base indeed. No CPU is able to consistently maintain their turbo speed on this many cores. When all cores are utilized, the base speed pretty much is the max speed in practice.

+1

And as I wrote before, you also need to cool it. You don't get much out of 128 4GHz cores if you have to downclock them because of the heat.
