Does AMD processors use hyperthreading internally? -
yesterday had argument friend stated amd processors using hyperthreading it's 8 core processors. knowledge there 8 cores on 1 chip , share memory l3 cache.
so, what's this? can more knowledge explain that's about?
ht allows 2 process' contexts share functional blocks of 1 core in same time (to utilize these blocks effective possible) that's why number of physical processors in os = ht cores number * 2.
amd processors doesn't have equivalent, have more small cores. current architecture known "symmetric multithreading" (smt) cpu consists of number of processing blocks , each block has 2 cores (which share l2 cache , logic)
