@MrJason005, this particular video is looking at how this technology can help the healthcare industry specifically, but could apply to any industry.

[MrJason005]

why are they talking ONLY about doctors???

@arulanandcisco I guess in layman's term, yes. You can check by going to my computer, and it tells you the model of the cpu on the bottom. Google that model and you will find all sorts of info, including cores, threads, power consumption, etc about your cpu. For example, mine says Core i5 2500K

@rahmanroni so you are telling threads are like VM inside a core ?

How to check the threads in the Processor ? I have i3 with my Dell.

[rahmanroni]

@arulanandcisco Cores are like having separate highways, while threads are like lanes on those highways. So you can have 4 cores with 4 threads, meaning you have 4 separate roads. If you have a 4 core cpu with 8 threads, its as if each of those highways were divided into 2 lanes. While it doesn't increase the performance for everything (comparable to a large truck trying to pass through), it would help with other stuff, such as CAD (comparable to having bicycles using the same roads).

all of this are only for games

@ClaudioSL619 What is the difference between cores and threads ?

[ClaudioSL619]

@Irishmura the i7 is more powerful. It has Hyperthreading that every single core can simulate to a second core. so each core has 2 threads. ex.:

intel i5 2500k has 4 cores and 4 threads (the i5 don't support hyperthreading. so he has only 4 cores)

intel i7 2600k has 4 cores and 8 THREADS (the i7 can simulate 8 cores)

and the i7 has more cache than the i5. but there isn't a big performance difference of those cpu's.

the mobile i5 has hyperthreading. but it is just a 2 core / 4 Threads

@Irishmura Google is your friend.

Thanks! Great video!
