What is the minimum processor speed for Windows 8?

500MHz
800MHz
1GHz
1.5GHz

The correct answer is: 1GHz

Windows 8 requires a minimum processor speed of 1GHz to run efficiently. This is because Windows 8 is a relatively newer operating system and requires a faster processor to handle its advanced features and functions. Options A and B, with speeds lower than 1GHz, may not be powerful enough to smoothly run Windows 8. Option D, with a higher speed of 1.5GHz, is a more powerful processor than the required minimum and will also work well with Windows 8. However, it is not necessary to have a processor speed higher than 1GHz for this operating system.
