The frequency of activity on a motherboard is measured in megahertz (MHz), or one million cycles per second. The processor operates at a much higher frequency than other components in the system, and its activitiy is measured in gigahertz (GHz), or one billion cycles per second.
Hertz is the measurement. A Mega and a Giga is the unit of measurement of a Hertz.

Hertz as in your CPU runs a 3 giga hertz etc....
The frequency is measured in Hertz.
A system bus frequency is 1600 MHz. A CPU frequency is 166 MHz to almost 4GHz.
CPU operates from 166 MHz to more than 3 GHz system can operate from 133 MHz to 400 MHz. CPU is faster than the system bus
System bus frequency and multiplier
Frequency is measured in Hertz, or cycles per second.
it depends on the CPU.. but the frequency is measured in herts
You end up with the advertised/effective CPU speed, such as 2.8GHz.
I suppose you mean "CPU" The system bus is typically set at a vastly lower frequency than the CPU. They handle different things, so comparing them to each other for "speed" isn't really possible. This is similar to asking if the speed of a plane is higher than the hardness of a rock.
Yes
The root frequencies of an Intel motherboard include the support system frequency bus. This includes the processor and the CPU Voltage and VRM Frequency.
System bus
You can adjust a great number of things with a CPU. Core frequency, link / bridge / bus frequency, and voltage are just a few things you can change.
The Front Side Bus (FSB) connects the processor (CPU) in your computer to the system memory.
