If they are looking for not overclocked, I think the P4 EE was like 3.73Ghz.
Of course GHz matter. If they didn't, why would we OC in the first place? The only thing we are changing is the clock rate.

If this is PC specific, I think that's the tops, however, I am sure there are some supercomputer crap that is higher.
