What is 2.2 gigahertz?

Answer 1

2.3GHz is a frequency equal to 2 300 000 000 hertz, also known as the clock rate, it is the frequency at which the oscillator crystal switches from no power to power or from logical 0 state to logical 1 state, and on an oscilloscope would be represented by a square wave (DC) with a wave length of 0.13034 meters.

Contrary to popular belief clock rate in itself is not an indication of speed, by which you most likely mean performance, or operations/second, most commonly float point operations/second FLOPS, it is not an accurate indicator because various CPUs can process various amounts of instructions per clock cycle. Clock speed is useful in comparison of performance of same family of processors, however it is not a good way to compare different types of processors, for example an Intel 80486 (i486) running at 75Mhz has a totally different performance from a MIPS r8000 running at 75MHz, they are two completely different processors running completely different architectures; supercomputer running only 18 of the r8000 processors made #154 on the 500 list in November of 1994. Plus things like instruction-level parallelism you have a potential to perform multiple operations during the same clock cycle, giving you higher throughput.

Answer 2

its quite fast..I mean its average its not the fastest tho

Answer 3

2.2 GigaHertz

Answer 4

It means 2,200,000,000 cycles per second
