Hyper Threading Vs Dual Core / Multi-Core

[hackerthegreat123]

Is it AMD NEW version APU support Hyper threading....such as AMD E series,AMD A series A4,A6,A8.....pls reply....

[EvendimataE]

i have 10 trash found computers the lowest specs is pentium 4 2.8 ghz 2gb ram...... and the hightest 3.2 pentium d 3gb ram....with my facebooking, youtubing, emailing, online music, online tv shows....they all perform good..... thats why there is no reason for me to buy a new computer yet

You have no idea what you are talking about.

But my old i5-520M has only 2 cores and it supports hyper-threading. In fact, most of the i5 processors have 2 cores and support hyper-threading if I'm not mistaken.

@4everskyline718 The Gen 2 and Gen 3 I5's do, the first gen did not.

I do believe that if youre a gamer like me and dont do so much multitasking, the core i5 is the right choice , i can afford the core i7 but is just stupid, you will never use 8 cores in a game, unless ure recording ure game or doing some renders , which i never do.

doom and quake are modern first person shooters?! wtf?

[BlackwaterOpsDotCom]

@phantumgrey Yes. Modern is a Class it does NOT mean "recent". Just like any HTML5 compatible browser is a "modern" browser even if it is 2 years old. Any car after 1978 uses a "Modern Catalytic converter"

[phantumgrey]

@BlackwaterOpsDotCom Well at least you made an attempt to sound smart.

[omg123596]

Mine has both haha :D

[alexanderjurjens]

You used wrong examples. For example, Quake and Doom does not use multiple cores.

[BlackwaterOpsDotCom]

@alexanderjurjens Doom 3 and Quake 4 both support 4 cores/threads as do any game based of an id engine since.

[BlackwaterOpsDotCom]

@alexanderjurjens Doom 3 and Quake 4 both support 4 cores/threads as do any game based of an id engine since.

[alexanderjurjens]

@BlackwaterOpsDotCom That can very well be, but you didn't mention those games :)

But I'm a lenient guy, so I'll think that you meant the franchises :)

[BLOOMS]

Your wrong.  If you get any CPU with 4 cores today, they will be able to run any software across all cores even if the application has not been optimized to do so

[BlackwaterOpsDotCom]

@BLOOMS No, You have to have multi-threaded apps. If an app isn't designed to be thread safe it won't use any more than 1 CPU.

[ThaiprawnCurry]

@BLOOMS You're wrong.

[renegade8164]

Haha Quake and Doom... I thought you would say Modern Warfare 3 or Battlefield 3 (recommended specs is quad-core haha)^^,

[BlackwaterOpsDotCom]

@renegade8164 I decided at the last minute I didn't want the MW vs BF holy war in the comments :-) Otherwise I'd have picked something newer, but being on camera when I came to that decision I froze, and couldn't remember if Quake and Doom were still new, and which came out more recently.

Make a video on Pixel mapping on TV´s vs monitors... ppl will love it, do some brands that to well too

CPU is pretty cheap now. i7 2600 and 2600K is only $240-360.

[alielmir2]

please explain the difference between apu (Accelerated processing unit) and gpu ?

[Kuckti15]

@alielmir2 GPU stands for graphics processing unit. It only processes graphics, that's all, it's completely dedicated to graphics processing. APU I believe is an AMD product, in which the CPU and GPU are on the same die, allowing for really powerful graphics processing. :)

[BlackwaterOpsDotCom]

@Kuckti15 It is more complex than that, but So that I don't get it wrong, I'm making sure I have all the answers before I make this series of vids.

[Kuckti15]

@BlackwaterOpsDotCom Just going off of what little I've read. Can't seem to find a lot of info on APU's for some reason..

[alielmir2]

@Kuckti15 thanks for your help i really appreciate it



[dalekmun2010]

NOT AGAIN! This is the 2nd time this week I've been third!

[JMZ619]

can you explain what Ghz are and other similar types.
