Ever since i added two kingston 512 memory sticks to my 9300 (which, by the way had a time of 19 hours with 38 passes and 5 errors) my 9300 has been telling me this:

I dunno if it is the memory or what... Usually is says 1.86ghz not 798mhz.

Speed step is active. Your processor clock slows down when not active to save power.

oh... so thats what speed step is. Okay, thanks

EDIT: When I look at 18kfanGUI it says current CPU speed 1866 MHz but when I look at the control pannel it still says 798 Mhz?

18KFanGUI might be reading your max speed instead. But also note that running 18K could be enough to power up your CPU. But don't worry about it, it's working perfectly fine.

The control panel is inaccurate at reading the current clockspeed (at times it's claimed mine is running at 0.6Mhz!), Intel have a small program called Frequency ID utility or similar from their site, I find it's usually accurate at reading the current cpu speed.
