Can someone explain to a PC retard what the difference is between teraflops and clock speed?
>>
Teraflops: Speed
Clockspeed: Horsepower

One is a unit, the other is a variable.

That actually helps since I'm from /o/. Thanks

More clock speed nets you higher teraflops.

Terraflops is the size of your stomach.
Clockspeed is how fast you can eat pizza.

>>55076969
Clock "speed" is the frequency of a digital device's clock signal. TFLOPS is a measurement of how many floating point operations a computer can execute in a second. TFLOPS is "tera floating point operations per second"
>>
>>55076969
Teraflops are used to measure ability for scientific computing. Frequency is how fast things can be pushed through the processor. Differences in architecture and application decide the performance in regard to frequency.

And flops per clock cycle is efficiency.
>>
>>55076969
Clock speed is about how many hours your clock displays. See, if your clock displays only 6 hours, its clock speed has to be 4 times as high as a clock that displays 24 hours.
Most clocks display 12 hours and therefore have a clock speed of 2.
