Detailed explanation-1: -A 3.0 GHz processor has 3 billion opportunities per second to do something, while a 3.6 GHz processor has 3.6 billion chances–making it roughly 20 percent faster.
Detailed explanation-2: -A clock speed of 3.5 GHz to 4.0 GHz is generally considered a good clock speed for gaming but it’s more important to have good single-thread performance. This means that your CPU does a good job of understanding and completing single tasks.
Detailed explanation-3: -AMD’s 64-core, with 128 threads, Ryzen ThreadRipper 3990X desktop PC processor is considered the world’s fastest CPU in 2021.
Detailed explanation-4: -A CPU with a clock speed of 3.2 GHz executes 3.2 billion cycles per second. (Older CPUs had speeds measured in megahertz, or millions of cycles per second.) Sometimes, multiple instructions are completed in a single clock cycle; in other cases, one instruction might be handled over multiple clock cycles.
