CPU Speed...

Any reason why my max CPU speed drops from 1200 to 700 from time to time on its own?

CPU stepping down it's clock speed when it's not needed, saves battery life.

I am aware the cpu speed fluctuates depending on the need. What baffles me is why should my range of speed be kind of fixed. I set it to 350-1200 but later on when I observed my phone is a bit sluggish and check it's performance I found out the range have changed to 350-700. Why is it so please?
