Applications that are "heavily threaded", as in they've been written to take advantage of multiple CPU cores, benefit greatly from multiple cores and even more so from features like HyperThreading. Core 2 Quad's
Which is 5W below what a PL capped 8700K draws and realy safe. The VRMs barely get to 70s. So it's all about realistic workloads for what you do, if you run stresstesting and AVX code on all threads all the time, of course, you'll benefit from something beefy like...
I think all of my cpu cores are active on idle by default. My idle temp is bit high. Many people suggested to tweak above settings. My chipset drivers and bios are already updated and using Ryzen balanced power plan. Can someone explain me what those options are and should I set those...
The CPU Apple is using is not in Arc and will not be $750 like everyone else is saying. I don't understand why everyone is missing this. All of the CPU's Apple is using have much more cache and a higher TDP so you don't know what CPU they are using and pri...
There are a lot of threads online boasting of magic stuttering fixes or more FPS just from disabling CPPC or Preferred Cores, but no reliable testing to back up any of it or exclude any other factors or variables. Not discounting users' experiences as untrue (and certainly v...
