What are Core Clock Speeds?

[Aggron]

I'm getting a GTX 970 and I see a lot of 970s and they had different core clock. I'm wondering what core clock speeds are.

I quote from the link - "the memory clock speed is the speed that the memory works at, the gpu clock is the speed that the gpu core works at. "
