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 ...

With the upcoming launch of Intel's Prescott core looming on the horizon, the term "hyper-threading" is getting more and more play in the press as Intel prepares to kick its PR campaign into high gear ...

A thread in programming terms is the flow of control within a program, the path taken through the instructions -- a bit like the sequence of thoughts you have when working something out. It's ...

Most of Intel's microprocessor chips have a feature the company calls "hyper-threading." The technology improves performance in complex software environments by more efficiently juggling multiple ...

Intel first introduced Hyper-Threading (HT) technology with is Xeon CPU architecture back in 2002, over 20 years ago now, with simultaneous multithreading technology allowing physical cores inside of ...

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 ...

As we've come to learn recently, there are four new hardware vulnerabilities that affect Intel processors. These new flaws allow attackers to leak confidential data by exploiting microarchitectural ...

At least 12 new Intel CPUs could be inbound under the Comet Lake-S banner and while they still sport a 14nm manufacturing process, the addition of Hyper-threading means each could pack a much bigger ...

More slides have been posted online, this time via informaticacero.com in an apparent leak of more details surrounding Intel's 10th Gen desktop CPU plans for 2020. This time, the existence of F and KF ...

Intel's multithreading architecture. Hyper-Threading makes one physical CPU appear as two logical CPUs. It uses additional registers to overlap two instruction streams in order to achieve an ...
