What was the clock speed of the first micro processor?

Question

Also, the fast processor out right now is 4.7 GHz, how many times faster is the fastest processor available now as compared to the first micro processor?

Answer 1

One of the first was the Intel 8080 chip which ran in the one to ten Megacycle range. You really can't compare on that basis, you would need some kind of benchmark test like doing an instruction set. When I went to computer school back in 1965, the SEL 810 was state of the art, with a sub microsecond memory cycle.
