Other than actually looking at the jumpers on the motherboard, you can
go to the processor's manufacturer's web site and find the data.  I do
know that some brands such as cyrix do not actually tell you the clock
speed in their processor's name.  I found out that my cyrix P233
actually runs at 187mhz.  The P233 is a class rating.  The 187mhz cyrix
actually process faster than a pentium 233mhz.  It almost processes as
much as a 233 Pentium II by the actual performance data.  With the
pentiums, I would assume the number is the mhz.  With the non Intel
brands, they just compare themselves to the Intel chips.
