Actually, it does not depend on clock speed alone.
More like on relationships betwween clock speed and power consumption.

Arm Cortex X4 reaches much higher clock speed than Neoverse-N2, but
it also consumes more power. At the end, latency of integer multiplier
is the same as N2 - 2 for regular multiply, 3 for umulh.

Even X925 that goes to quite extreme clock frequencies (and throughput),
has most of the latencies the same as N2. Only integer
multiple-accumulate is higher by 1 clock.
