Hyperthreading
Posted: Sun Feb 01, 2015 9:19 am
All signs point to disabling hyperthreading in the the BIOS. But in my case, the option to enable or disable it was greyed out entirely.
After looking at the CPU specs, the Intel processor I bought doesn't seem to support hyperthreading. Is that good or bad? Did I choose the right CPU or is that actually a bad thing? I only care as far as DAW work and recording is concerned. I don't use my studio PC for anything else. If NOT having a hyperthreading enabled CPU works in my favor then cool. If it's a possible problem I'd like to know about it. What does it mean to have a 4 core CPU that doesn't support hyperthreading?
