Question

My computer has a 1.3 GHz. I want to get a game but the minimum requirment is 1.4 GHz. Can I still get this game and play it without any problems that will prohibit me from being able to play it. I would also like to get a game that has a 1.7 GHz requirment and be able to get this game and play it without any problems that will prohibit me from being able to play it.

Answer 1

What do you expect us (Apple users) to tell you?  Especially since you are not telling us which specific MacBook Air you have - as some of the recent ones have TurboBoost.
But even putting that aside, if the game maker takes the time and trouble to tell you a required speed, and you do not meet that speed, then obviously you should expect the game to function less than perfectly.  If you are considering a 1.7GHz required game on a machine with 65% of that performance, you should feel lucky if the game runs at all, even with miserable performance.
The game maker took the trouble to lay out the specs.  If you don't meet them, expect inferior, if any, performance.
