Detailed explanation-1: -One gigahertz is equal to 1, 000 megahertz (MHz) or 1, 000, 000, 000 Hz. Gigahertz is often used to measure central processing unit (CPU) clock speed. In general, higher CPU clock speeds indicate faster computers.
Detailed explanation-2: -The original Athlon (now called Athlon Classic) was the first seventh-generation x86 processor and the first desktop processor to reach speeds of one gigahertz (GHz). It made its debut as AMD’s high-end processor brand on June 23, 1999.
Detailed explanation-3: -1. GHz is short form of gigahertz, is a unit of A.C(alternating current ) or electromagnetic (EM) wave frequencies measurement equal to 1, 000, 000, 000 Hz. 1 GHz=1000000000 Hz means frequency 1000000000 times min to max in a second.
Detailed explanation-4: -If you’re wondering how to check your clock speed, click the Start menu (or click the Windows key) and type “System Information.” Your CPU’s model name and clock speed will be listed under “Processor.”
