If you're running Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can go to Start>right-click on "My Computer / Computer" and click "Properties". On my computer, it says
AMD Phenom (tm) II X4 B45 Processor 3.10 GHz

THIS is the speed, 3.10 gigahertz.
Otherwise, you can Google a program called CPU-Z that will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about your processor, and probably several things you didn't.
Yes it matters. if you want to use a computer for graphics then you need a fairly large processor. if you want to do games you need a big processor. if you want to upgrade your OS someday then you need to have a good processor. Also, the size of your processor effects your speed.
processor is the brain of computer, before you purchase, considered the price, the speed, cores, cache and features, if you want low price processor but good for gaming and speed, good choice are amd.
"The cost of a John Lewis laptop depends on what you want in your computer. When you are getting a computer you want to look at the memory, the size, the speed and the processor."
It all depends on the configuration. ie how much ram you want. The speed of the processor ,graphic card etc.
you will need to get a faster processor so you can watch your nasty porn videos
Electronic microprocessors are limited by the speed of light. Electrical current through the processor travels at the speed of light and that becomes the limiting factor. The Speed of Light is 29,979,245,800 cm/sec. A 1 GHz Processor can theoretically perform up to 1,000,000,000 instructions/sec. Each processor instruction produces a result in the form of an electrical signal that needs to be stored or delivered somewhere. The time in between consecutive processor instructions becomes the limiting factor since it determines how far the signal produced by the previous instruction can travel at the speed of light. The time in between instructions on a 1 GHz processor is 1/1,000,000,000 sec, if this figure is multiplied by the speed of light we would get a distance of 29.9 cm. This means that no component that interacts directly with the CPU can be at a distance greater than 30 cm for a 1 GHz processor. For a 3 GHz processor the distance is 10 cm. It seems that we are currently near to the limit of how fast our processors can run. The current "multiple core" trend we are seeing from processor manufacturers seems to support this case. Multiprocessing is currently the most cost effective workaround to acheive improved performance if you cannot go any faster on a single processor. +++ In practice it is slowed further by such factors as capacitor charge-discharge times. These may be in fractions of microseconds, but still significant at the circuit's working frequency.

Why would you want to know this you cheating feg
If speed is constant:distance = speed x time If speed is not constant, an integral has to be used.
if you want to know ur upload and ur download speed, just click on the below site. it will tell u what u want. http://speedtest.net/
By replacing the motherboard and the processor or CPU. Every computer would have a processor or CPU. Some common brands are Intel, Acer etc. It is this processor speed which is measured in hertz. These days processors that are around 2 giga hertz or more fast have come. So if you want to get more Mega hertz on your PC, change the CPU.
To add a second processor to a computer, you need a dual-processor motherboard.
