Slow 2012 iMac internet speed

[Aspen]

I have a 2012 iMac, i7, 16 GB RAM. When hardwired, the internet speed is around 250-350 GHz. My old Windows 7 (i7 with 16 GB RAM and new Windows 10 (newer i7 with 32 GB RAM) internet speeds are around 950-980 GHz hard wired. Does the older iMac somehow prevent faster speeds due to outdated hardware or such? On wireless, the iMac is about 200-250 GHz.

Thank you for the help.

I am confused by the units you are using. Hertz are a measure of frequency, not network throughput. And do you mean "internet" speed (defined by your ISP/package), or speeds between hosts on the local LAN? Need more info!
