The technology behind Hyper-Threaded, or HT, and multi-core processors enables processors to far exceed the performance of single-core, non-HT processors. The differences between the technologies are ...

Things are not looking good for Intel since the year 2018 began with Spectre and Meltdown exploits coming to light and AMD Ryzen slowly gaining on Intel. Now, another critical threat has been ...

A new side-channel vulnerability has been discovered called PortSmash that uses a timing attack that to steal information from other processes running in the same CPU core with SMT/hyper-threading ...

Documents leaked by renowned leaker @yuuki_ans on X reveal that early Arrow Lake samples have Hyper Threading disabled by default, which to some has implied that Intel may be looking to launch its ...

I used to follow the processor business very closely and go to Microprocessor Forum, the premiere show in the industry, every year. One of the arguments made by the hardware geniuses, although never ...

Historically, Intel’s low-power, high-efficiency Pentium series consists of a dual-core processor family with one crucially lacking factor: Hyper-Threading. Since the early 2000s, the Santa Clara ...

The OpenBSD project announced today plans to disable support for Intel CPU hyper-threading due to security concerns regarding the theoretical threat of more "Spectre-class bugs." Hyper-threading (HT) ...

The OpenBSD project is killing off support for Intel CPU hyper-threading due to security concerns regarding the theoretical threat of more "Spectre-class bugs". For those who came in late ...

Dual-core CPUs have made their way into computers across the world and with quad-core processors poised to make the same invasion, it looks like the core race is on. Interestingly, Intel notes on its ...

Home > Computing The Pentium G4560 with Hyper-Threading is a potent budget processor Intel's new Hyper-Threading equipped Pentiums offer excellent performance for very little money. AMD's Ryzen is ...

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 ...
