The answer is probably a bit more complicated than you are hoping for. All other factors held even, the faster the clock rate (speed at which computer can execute instructions), the faster the computer. For most modern desktops and laptops, CPU clock rates are measured in GHz, so a CPU with a GHz of 1.2 will be faster than a CPU with a GHz of 1.1
However, it is really important to note that clock rate is not the only thing that contributes to how fast a CPU will be able to work and as a result the overall computer. The amount of available memory, both on the CPU, and main system memory play a key role as well. The most time consuming part of desktop computing is generally moving data between the hard drive and main memory, and then between main memory and memory on the processor.
A 1.1 GHz processor would out perform a 1.2 GHz processor in general usage if it had more onboard memory, as it would spend less of its time waiting for data to be loaded into memory and more time doing work.

What is faster 1.50 GHz or 2 GHz?
3.2 gigahertz is faster than 1.5 gigahertz.
Is 3.2 ghz better than 1.5 ghz?
Of course it is, it is much more faster than the 1.5 GHz processor.
What is faster celeron 2.3 ghz or core duo 1.8 ghz?
Core Duo
What is faster ghz or mbs?
Gigahertz are faster than Megahertz In computer terms 1024 Megahertz would equal 1 Gigahertz. Therefor a Ghz is faster than a Mhz.
What is faster 4.7 GHz or 7.4 MHz?
4.7 GHz. giga is higher than mega
Is 1700 MHz faster than 1.8 GHz?
No. It is 100 MHz slower.
Laptop Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 ghz or 2.4 ghz?
the core 2 duo 2.4 ghz is better. the higher the ghz, generally the faster the computer
What is better 1.5 Intel core or 2.3 ghz?
2.3 ghz, higher the ghz, the faster it is. but don't overclock it too high or else your computer will overheat
What makes a 2.53 GHz MacBook Pro better than a 2.26 GHz MacBook Pro?
A faster processor.
Which is better core2duo 2.1GHz or dual core 2.5GHz?
2.5 GHz is better than 2.1 GHz. It is because it is the latest processor. It will be faster than 2.1 GHz.
What is 2.13 GHz?
The clock speed at which the CPU can run at, the higher the Ghz the faster it runs, but that means it would need to be cooled down much faster than its current fan speed setting. To increase the Ghz in a computer, this would be referred to as Overclocking.
What makes a better processor high gHz or low gHz?
In regards to computer processors the higher the number of gigahertz the faster it is.
