Is 1.8 GHz processor speed fast?

The 1.8 Ghz speed can be considered a "guaranteed" all core speed it should be able to run at indefinitely at the standard 15w TDP (as long as the cooling system is in good shape). 4 Ghz is likely to be a single core turbo speed that can be run for a short period.

Is 1.8 GHz base speed good?

Well 1.8 GHz is fast for a human, but only middling fast for a computer. A single cycle at 1.8 GHz takes 555 picoseconds or about half a nanosecond. A nanosecond is a billionth of a second. In that time, light will travel about 6 inches.

What is better higher GHz or lower?

Clock speed is measured in GHz (gigahertz), a higher number means a faster clock speed. To run your apps, your CPU must continually complete calculations, if you have a higher clock speed, you can compute these calculations quicker and applications will run faster and smoother as a result of this.
