Does this also relate to CISPR 22/EN 55022?

It seems to me that if it means the highest frequency used in the PC, 
you could get an optimistic result by using a very 'slow' PC and 
therefore you would have to use a PC with the highest possible 
frequency, and that is impracticable because such a beast may not be 
available to you, and tomorrow there could be a faster one.

My conclusion is that logic dictates that it is the highest frequency 
used in the peripheral. But interpretations of standards are not always 
based on logic.(:-(
