Question

CPU speed of a personal computer is
A) 1 MIPS
B) 100 KIPS
C) 32 KIPS
D) 32 MIPS

Answer 1

Answer: C) 32 KIPS  

Explanation:

Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. CPU speed of a personal computer is 32 KIPS (Kilo Instructions per second).

Answer 2

CPU speed of a personal computer is 100 KIPS

The frequency at which a processor's clock generator can produce pulses, which are needed to synchronize the actions of its components, is referred to as the clock rate or clock speed. Clock speed is used as an indicator of the processor's speed.

The rate of a computer's processor is expressed in instructions per second (IPS). Realistic workloads generally result in much lower reported IPS values because many reported IPS values have represented "peak" execution rates on artificial instruction sequences with few branching. The CPU speed of a personal computer is 100 KIPS.
