The factual accuracy of this chart is disputed. The clock speeds past 2001 seem to be projections made decades ago, based on the sources given at the link; [1] seems to indicate that, as of 2020, no hardware has exceeded the clock speed this chart claims was achieved in 2010

English: :Microprocessor clock speed
Microprocessor clock speed measures the number of pulses per second generated by an oscillator that sets the tempo for the processor. It is measured in hertz (pulses per second).
