Hyper-Threading Function
The processor uses Hyper-Threading technology to increase transaction rates
and reduces end-user response times. The technology treats the two cores
inside the processor as two logical processors that can execute instructions
simultaneously. In this way, the system performance is highly improved. If you
dis able the f unction, the processor will use only one c ore to execute the
instructions. Please disable this item if your operating system doesn't
support HT Function, or unreliability and instability may occur.
Important
Enabling the functionality of Hyper-Threading Technology for your computer
system requires ALL of the following platform Components:
