albert, Re: "But I hear from you "at least" as a defense, funny"

There has been a lot of hay over Hyperthreading, and I agree that much of it is probably unwarranted at this point in time, at least until there is a tangible library of titles available to take advantage of it. I doubt you'd see Intel marketing spin it in that light, so I see your point. However, I don't think it's exactly along the same lines of QuantiSpeed, which is a marketing gimmick by AMD in order to make up for their lack of Megahertz in a market where Megahertz Sells.

Dumbert - Re:"But I hear from you "at least" as a defense, funny"

Intel has always said a 10% to 30% improvement. The Infoworld tests in the article showed an improvement of 19% to 44%, depending on the number of users. That data clearly shows Intel's range is very conservative.

Your premise that Intel said 30% improvement is total utter nonsense.
