Yes, the voltage might be diffrent. But the original poster also wondered
if they required some special software, the answer to that is no they will
not require any special software. And if you have a CPU that has more MHz
than another then why not use it instead of the one with less MHz? You
should get some speed increase (some instructions take several clock cycles
- floating point math for instance).
