Modern computers have multiple "cores" (basically, multiple CPUs working together, and often then also have multiple "threads" (basically, one CPU acting a more than one). These are usually both efficiency cores (less powerful--therefor slower--but use less electricity, therefore extending the battery's charge) and performance cores (more powerful and faster, therefore using more electricity and shortening battery charge). In this case, the 1.7GHz is the Base Clock Frequency of the efficiency CPUs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That is the CPU speed
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Intel Core i7-1255U is a high-end mobile CPU for thin and light laptops. The CPU clock speed rate ranges from 1.7 to 4.7 GHz depending on the work load of computer. The Intel Hyper Threading feature and Intel Speed Shift Technology feature are enabled by default. Between both these two technologies permission is given to Windows 11 OS and related computer hardware to handle the best possible speed and overall performance of this laptop. Both of these features are listed in the Bios of this computer accessible by entering F12 on boot up to review, but do not make any changes in the Bios if not familiar. The base Speed 1.70 ghz is the one listed in Settings\System]\About path under Processor info in Windows 11, but does not mean that the current speed state of computer is running at that speed, more than likely around 3.3 ghz or so.
