Well, it's obvious that if you just look at processor speed, then the CPU that's 3.06 GHz would be faster than the one running at 1.6 GHz. However, in the real world you have to account for various other things such as system bus speed, RAM speed, CPU cache, overall OS speed, etc. This is why clock speed only is not the best determinator for how fast a computer is.
