Enterprise, online business, and gaming software applications continue to place higher demands on
processors. To improve performance in the past, threading was enabled in software by splitting instructions
into multiple streams. With today's Hyper-Threading Technology (HT Technology)¹ you get thread-level
parallelism on each processor resulting in more efficient use of processor resources–higher processing
throughput–and improved performance on today's multithreaded software.
An Intel processor and chipset used with an OS and BIOS supporting HT Technology allows you to:
- Run demanding desktop applications simultaneouslywhile maintaining system responsiveness
- Keep systems more secure, efficient, and manageable, while minimizing impact on productivity
- Provide headroom for future business growthand new solution capabilities
Better gaming and multimedia
HT Technology enables gaming enthusiasts to play the latest titles and experience ultra-realistic effects
and game play. And multimedia enthusiasts can create, edit, and encode graphically intensive files while
running background applications such as virus scan in the background–all without slowing down.
Improving enterprise environments and online business
With
HT Technology, multithreaded server software applications can execute
threads in parallel within each processor in a server platform. And
with HT Technology in enterprise and e-business environments,
businesses can:
- Improve business productivityby doing more at once without slowing down
- Provide faster response timesfor Internet and e-Business applications, enhancing customer experiences
- Increase the number of transactionsthat can be processed simultaneously
- Utilize existing technologieswhile maintaining future readiness with compatibility for existing
32-bit applications and OSs while being prepared for the future of
64-bit
