hyperthreading was always a meme.
games run best on i5s anyway.
if you need more than 4 threads to run a game, you're basically an idiot, all the actual performance comes from the GPU.

Threads are basically the Hz of cpus, they don't actually mean anything they're just bigger and bigger numbers for marketing

I'm sorry i just woke up but what the fuck is the joke here

This
what do you even need 2 cores for?

Sweet sweet cope

Threadripper2 is out. Threadripper1 is old stock that needs moving.

>games
Fuck off

That's actually what anand(from anandtech) said when the athlon x2 came out.

four cores? what you need three cores for? two cores should be good enough for anyone!

>games
Wrong board.

Hyper threading is fucked because of security flaws right?
Or am I missing something?

What is it you are asking?

it takes less time to encode anime on more cores. threads also help for that.

reverse psychology user he is shitting on intel

>hyperthreading was always a meme
That's just because their implementation fucking sucks, IBM's SMT8 sweeps the floor with Intel and AMD's SMT implementations.

>one core its all you need really if you think about it.

Why have hyperthreading when you can just have more cores LMAO

One core and one thread is all you need.

smt8 spends half of the time threading those 8 threads on each core its not suitable for any kind of casual work or even gaming for that matter what so ever
plus its a bit weird that ibm's smt being superior to amd since you know
ITS FUCKING IDENTICAL

> lets see them do hexa-threading
It was good when cpu's only had one core though probably

>IBM's SMT8 sweeps the floor

POWER9's SMT8 is a scam designed to allow customers to pay software licensing costs for half as many cores. It's very nearly two complete independent cores tied together just closely enough that they can call it a single core. In practice anybody with an SMT8 chips is really running 2 or 4 threads per (((core))).

while SMT4 hardware is literally pic related.
the doubled up design has 2x instruction fetch and scheduling, and there is no fucking way ALU result forwarding works across halves, so it boggles my mind that they can try to pass the SMT8 design off as a single core.

> being this fucking clueless

perhaps they're lying cunts?

Who the fuck said I was using my CPU for games?

Now this is epyc

Yep, the only way Intel can cure their issues is to shut it off completely.
