I think it will be in MIPS(Million Instructions Per Second) or Million Floating Point Instructions Per Second.

Almost all modern CPU's are measured in mhz. Most are fast enough to have a ghz rating.

Such as 2400 mhz would be 2.4 ghz. This reflects the clock speed default on the CPU.

The speed of a CPU is measured by Gigahertz (Ghz)

This is calculated from bus speed x multiplier (a lot more complicated than that, just a simple idea)

Is the system bus or the CPU faster?

The system bus is usually inside of the CPU, but I guess it depends on the processor and the motherboard. Usually, CPU clock speeds are faster, as they are measured in GHz, while the system bus speed is usually measured in MHz. Hope this helped! SeanHolshouser
