Turns out that if you put electricity into quertz - Silicon dioxide(thats why the meca of computers is silicon valley)- it shakes hitting sensors in the processer creating On/Off 1/0 binary. The speed at which the quertz shakes is hertz. A single hertz represents 1 bit. so 2 gigahertz = 2,000,000,000 bits of data.

Computer processing speed is measured in?

gega hertzComputer processing speed is never measured in units of Hertz (doing so is highly deceiving), it is measured one of several ways:IPS - Instructions Per Second - average number of instructions per second.FLOPS - FLoating point Operations Per Second - average number of floating point operations per second (on some machines one instruction can do several floating point operations).Whetstone - a standardized measure of floating point performance.Dhrystone - a standardized measure of integer performance.Livermore loops - a test of vector performance on highly parallel computers.Tak - a test of recursion performance.POV-Ray - a test of 3D rendering performance.etc.The most accurate measure of computer processing speed is how fast a computer is able to execute your final complete application. Unfortunately this software is almost never available when you need it for processor selection.
