Cores threads?
Some Guy is selling A Dell Studio computer
Dell studio XPS
Windows 7 home premium 64bit,
Intel i7 860 8x2.8Ghz,
I made a query and said that the machine in question is a quad core? with 8Mb cache, and he responded with the computer has 8 threads, so technically does this computer run at 8x2.8ghz? I thought like threads was software and cores were hardware?
