 | AMD Plans anti-HT for next K10 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.

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

| 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 |
