#WORLDS BIGGEST OVER CLOCKER GENERATOR#

Chip manufacturers publish a 'maximum clock rate' specification, and they test chips before selling them to make sure they meet that specification, even when executing the most complicated instructions with the data patterns that take the longest to settle (testing at the temperature and voltage that runs the lowest performance). For a given CPU, the clock rates are determined at the end of the manufacturing process through actual testing of each processor. Manufacturers of modern processors typically charge premium prices for processors that operate at higher clock rates, a practice called binning. Video card and CPU manufacturers commonly select their highest performing units from a manufacturing batch and set their maximum clock rate higher, fetching a higher price. This metric is most useful when comparing processors within the same family, holding constant other features that may affect performance. The clock rate of the first generation of computers was measured in hertz or kilohertz (kHz), the first personal computers (PCs) to arrive throughout the 1970s and 1980s had clock rates measured in megahertz (MHz), and in the 21st century the speed of modern CPUs is commonly advertised in gigahertz (GHz). It is measured in clock cycles per second or its equivalent, the SI unit hertz (Hz).

In computing, the clock rate or clock speed typically refers to the frequency at which the clock generator of a processor can generate pulses, which are used to synchronize the operations of its components, and is used as an indicator of the processor's speed.
