Have you installed the YaST power utility? Open YaST / Software / Software Management, search on power and install yast2-power-management. Then, a new system item will be added. You must restart YaST to see it. Also, go into System Services (Runlevel), enable pm-profiler, start it and accept the new setup. Then, you can run YaST / System / Power Managem and select Low Latency Computing which should run your CPU at full speed.
