When you're comparing two of the best CPUs, the first spec that comes to mind is clock speed. It quite literally represents how fast the CPU can churn through clock cycles, and naturally, you'd assume ...

There was once a time when a processor ran at a single, set clock speed. It ran at that speed all day, every day, unless it was purposely over or under-clocked by a user. In this simpler time there ...

For years, clock speed ruled the roost. It was the one metric you could point to, devoid of context, to say one component was "faster" than another. It's literally right there in the name. Clock speed ...

There was a time when the clock speed of a CPU was the only thing people were talking about. Back at the turn of the century, Intel and AMD locked horns in a race to release the first 1GHz desktop CPU ...

The very first Geekbench 6 benchmarks of the MacBook Pro with M3 processor have started to appear in the Geekbench 6 database. What they show is a processor whose higher CPU performance is almost ...

Intel has revealed more details of what’s under the hood of its upcoming Tiger Lake chip—including its new Willow Cove CPU architecture and integrated Xe GPU, as well as the promise of a dramatic ...

For the better part of two decades, the war for PC dominance was simple. It was a brutal, head-to-head arms race fought on a single front: clock speed. From the days of the Pentium 4 and the Athlon XP ...
