Today we're exploring the impact disabling Hyper-Threading has on Intel processors. We've done this in the past and it's an interesting test, however there are new incentives ...

What is Hyper-threading? Hyper-threading is Intel's name for a feature where a single processor can simultaneously run two threads. It's been built into the Pentium 4 since the start, but until ...

Hyper-Threading has been in Intel's processors for years. It's the main difference between the Core i5 and i7, and that many games don't use it expla ...

Intel decided to ditch Hyper-Threading for the upcoming Arrow Lake processors, and based on a new set of leaks, it may have been for the best.

You really don't have to turn off Hyper-Threading to prevent the latest speculative exploit, Zombieland, on Intel CPUs, but some vendors are doing it for you.

This may already be answered in another thread but here goes anyway. Suppose I have a 4 core processor with 8 threads of hyper threading. Let's take the Intel I7-4770K as an example. Does the fact ...

Intel It finally happened. Intel killed Hyper-Threading on its desktop CPUs. The new Arrow Lake range, called Core Ultra 200S, ditches the simultaneous multi-threading (SMT) feature that Intel has ...

An Intel patent describes an interesting technique that could spell the end for Hyper-Threading.

First time since Pentium 4 Chipzilla is likely to pull hyper-threading for the first time since the technology was first launched in the Pentium 4 era in the early 2000s. Intel is set to perform ...

To understand why dropping Hyper-Threading could be a good thing for Intel, let's review exactly what Hyper-Threading is and how it works to boost performance.
