This may be coming from a place of ignorance, but if that were the case, then time would drift significantly constantly due to Intel speed step for example. And if that were the source of truth for time, then when your computer is off, it wouldn’t be able to keep. I’m pretty sure they all have real time clock chips in the motherboards.
