Not necessarily. Many factors affect the performance of a processor. There was a time when AMD processors outperformed Intel processors that ran over 1000 MHz "faster." Today, Intel's newer processors, such as the Core i7, Core Duo, and Core 2 Duo, run at a lower clock rate than the previous Pentium 4s. MHz is only really useful when you are comparing two otherwise similar processors with the same architecture.

Why is my 1.4 GHz Socket 370 processor running at only 1 GHz?

Your motherboard probably does not support a 133 MHz Front Side Bus, but instead runs at only 100 MHz. Processor speed is determined by an internal multiplier in the processor times the speed of the Front Side Bus. A 1.4 GHz Pentium III had a multiplier of 10.5 133 MHz * 10.5 = 1.396 GHz 100 MHz * 10.5 = 1.050 GHz So, you will not be able to run the processor much higher than 1 GHz. You may be able to overclock your motherboard and raise the speed of the processor close to its rated speed, but other components, such as your video card or sound card, may malfunction at a higher speed.
