I just finished setting up my friends new computer and I notice on Bios under Hyperthreading it says "Yes" instead of N/A(mine says N/A).. I am using MSI p55-GD55.. does this mean new i5-750 have Hyperthreading? Ill take a picture tomorrow. what program do i need to check if it has hyperthreading?

No.

CPU-Z will tell you how many threads you have, so just use that to check if you think the i5 750 secretly has hyperthreading lol

 

[MicroAMD]

how many threads for HT?

 

[H.R.Pufnstuf]

None of the i5-750's have hyperthreading (unless something really big has gone unbeknownst to me). I'm guessing that is a mistype, or that it is just the default setting.

Negative.

i5 = 4 cores / 4 threads

Aka no hyperthreading.

nope it doesnt have hyperthreading. it probably wont even work.

try turning it on and see if theres 8 thread showing up in windows.

ill check tomorrow.. maybe just a bios.

I'll look at my bios to see what mine has to say. Right now I running with the MSI p55-GD80 with the latest bios version updated! The i5 750 only has 4 cores and 4 threads.

My bios said hyperthreading-N/A. That would be cool if you got a i5 750 with HT.

I think I remember seing 8 threads.. not quite sure.. arggg.... I shoulda taken a picture of it.. hopefully by tomorrow...

Must just be the default setting. So that hyperthreading defaults to on when an i7 860 or similar is plugged into the board.

I'm interested to see how this turns out.

Needs pics!

Would be amazing if you got an 860 that was somehow mislabeled as a 750. Good luck with that one
