Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How does clock speed affect computer performance?
A
The higher the clock speed the slower the computer will run.
B
It improves the amount you can store on the computer.
C
The higher the clock speed the better the performance.
D
It will make loading program slower
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In general, a higher clock speed means a faster CPU. However, many other factors can come into play, as well. Your CPU processes many instructions from different programs every second. Some of these instructions involve simple arithmetic, while others are more complicated.

Detailed explanation-2: -In general, a higher clock speed means a faster CPU. However, many other factors come into play. Your CPU processes many instructions (low-level calculations like arithmetic) from different programs every second. The clock speed measures the number of cycles your CPU executes per second, measured in GHz (gigahertz).

Detailed explanation-3: -Clock speed is measured in GHz (gigahertz), a higher number means a faster clock speed. To run your apps, your CPU must continually complete calculations, if you have a higher clock speed, you can compute these calculations quicker and applications will run faster and smoother as a result of this.

Detailed explanation-4: -Clock speed CPU clocks can sometimes be sped up slightly by the user. This process is known as overclocking. The more pulses per second, the more fetch-decode-execute cycles that can be performed and the more instructions that are processed in a given space of time.
