Quite, it is. (-_(//)); YOu'll probably use more often HT than TB though as they're exclusive and only the CPU decides of it's performances policy IIRC.
Well I use both simultaneously all the time. :P

Duke "Tape" Eiyeron

You can't really use them both at the same time as the processor scale the power with the current used cores and temperature (after all I don't really know about these tech, so...)

Well my cooler can handle the extra temp from turbo. Hyperthreading doesn't increase power use or heat because it basically just fills in the idles of either thread that runs on the core.

Oh well I should ask techies for that kind of question.

I like to use Monte-Carlo method of guessing Pi. I like to use it as a performance test on calc after and before over clock.

I use the 3+4/(2*3*4)-4/(4*5*6)+4/(6*7*8 )... method.

That one seems fun to try on too. I should try making one on BASIC to compare clock speeds.

Snektron

Yeah its a really easy method, and gives quite good results in relatively few iterations

Thanks for the info. I found it: http://ark.intel.com/products/41316/Intel-Core-i7-860-Processor-8M-Cache-2_80-GHz

4 cores and 8 threads. Still a bit ancient I guess, though :P

Oh wow 2009. I had a core2duo machine from back then lol.

My desktop have a core2quad from this year! Noice!

My school computers are amazing but somehow they lag so bad. They have 12 (24 because somehow Intel's cores count as like 2x) cores at 2.4GHz.

We have some dells from like 2004 or something
