What is a CPU frequency?


Alternately referred to as clock speed and processor speed, is the speed at which the CPU can process instructions!



Contents:

1.) ... The CPU frequency!
2.) ... More information about frequency and Co.!



1.) The CPU frequency!

As an example - you have a 4 gigahertz CPU, then 4 billion arithmetic operations per second are theoretically possible.    

However, modern CPUs also have the ability to have two or more instructions per cycle, so with two instructions per cycle it would be 8 billion arithmetic operations per second with the same CPU!

However, if the CPU also has multiple cores and the software is written to use them, you can multiply that by the number of CPU cores again!

So, at 4 gigahertz and 4 cores with two commands per clock, 32 billion arithmetic operations per second would theoretically be possible.

2.) More information about frequency and Co.!
