What are gigahertz and kilohertz?

A gigahertz is one billion hertz, typical for modern CPU and Wi-Fi frequencies. A kilohertz is 1,000 hertz, used for audio and radio frequencies. For reference: human hearing spans about 20 Hz to 20 kHz, and Wi-Fi runs at 2.4–5 GHz.

How to convert gigahertz to kilohertz

1 GHz = 1,000,000 kHz. To convert, multiply the number of gigahertz by 1,000,000. For example, 5 GHz = 5,000,000 kHz, and 20 GHz = 20,000,000 kHz. To go the other way, multiply kilohertz by 0.000001 (since 1 kHz = 0.000001 GHz).

FAQ

What is 1 GHz in kHz?

1 GHz = 1,000,000 kHz. To convert any amount, multiply the number of gigahertz by 1,000,000.

How do I convert kilohertz back to gigahertz?

Go the other way: 1 kHz = 0.000001 GHz, so multiply kilohertz by 0.000001 to get gigahertz.

Is a gigahertz bigger than a kilohertz?

Yes — 1 GHz is the larger unit, equal to 1,000,000 kHz.

Are these frequency conversions exact?

They use the standard internationally-defined conversion factors. Results are rounded to six significant figures for readability, which is accurate enough for everyday and most technical use.
