AMD Plans anti-HT for next K10

@ 2006/04/12

Conscious that K8 architecture could not compete with the next high-speed motorboat of INTEL, all its hopes are for the moment based on a new "revolutionary" technology (it is our opinion, not it his) on which AMD works in this moment for after-K8. This technology is in fact a kind of anti-HT: There or HyperThreading sought to emulate two virtual processors with a physical processor, it is a question for AMD of emulating a single virtual processor with two (or several) physical processors.

Yeah you will get headshot twice as fast in CS

with two K10's.

Comment from Rutar @ 2006/04/12

by that time, games will support multicore CPUs

Comment from GIBSON @ 2006/04/12

multitasking would go slower though, hmm, maybe they can make something that switches modes, e.g. when in windows in dualcore (maybe even quadcore

) and when gaming in virtual singlecore

Comment from jmke @ 2006/04/12

that would mean that single threaded applications (like games) could benefit from a Dual K10 system
