This is the actual speed of your processor as calculated by Windows. What this means is that, in my case, my Windows laptop houses a 1.30GHz processor, but it has been overclocked by around 15% to ...

Different computer processor chips run at different speeds — this is known at their "clock speed." A higher clock speed means a CPU can run more operations per second, and thus run your computer ...

The M3 has maximum clock speed 16 percent higher than the M2. The single-core CPU performance score is about 17 percent higher, and the multi-core performance is about 21 percent higher.

The 14A process will introduce a new “turbo cell” technology designed to further increase the chip’s speeds, “including CPU maximum frequency and GPU critical paths,” Intel says.
