AMD is a good and cheaper alternative to Intel. Contrary to Matthew W's comment, clockspeed by itself is no indication of computing speed. There is also bus speed to consider which AMD excels in-at least for cost. AMD is built on a 64bit architecture which enables 64 bit computing but ONLY if you have a 64 bit operating system!
To answer your question, yes there is a 1.8GHz AMD processor, and much higher but I feel you're asking the wrong question.

Although the two major manufactures of CPU chips (Intel and AMD) have many features in common you cannot swap out one for the other. The motherboard will be made for Intel or AMD
Many people find that certain AMD CPUs are faster and in most cases quite a bit less expensive and the quality of the products are similar. The numbering system to give you the speed of the chip (i.e. 1.8) is the Intel method of letting you know the speed of the chip. AMD uses another method........just ask your retailer or look it up on the net to get the interpretation for what you want. Yes, AMD makes just about the same speed chips as Intel. If you have a choice, AMD always seems to me like the better dollar value.

No difference! There are two makes for processors (AMD and Pentium). As long as the numbers e.g. 1.8Ghz are the same, then the processor is capable of performing to the same standard. So if a pentium 3 is 2.0 Ghz, you'd be best going with it. Do you get me?
Oh well, I'm sorry, I'm only trying to help a guy out for **** sake.

AMD processor's are ordinary processors. Check this page from Hardwaresecrets.com: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/427
