HyperThreading

I got the AMD Athlon 64 +3000 a few weeks ago and just ran a proformance
test i was looking at the system info and it said that hyperthreading was
"not capable".
It was wondering why it was not capable.

Also what is the best cpu cooler.

If it could do HyperThreading then Intel would take them to court..

Sorry if it wraps incorrectly

Are you going to do Air/Water/Other
And If this is in a Desktop case then you could go with one of the HeatPipe
Coolers..
I am using one now and it's GREAT.. As long as the heatpipe is Vertical

Actually AMD and Intel have a "technology shared agreement" over
hyperthreading.

about the cpu cooler mabe something a little smaller

I haven't seen a comparison for K8 coolers yet so I'd pick the TR2-M6 ($7)
and maybe get a 5000rpm fan to replace the 2500rpm very quiet fan if need
be. But considering it works well on the XP, I don't see why it won't on
the K8. And I don't think you can beat the price by much.:-)

Could be but AMD will still have to pay Intel royalties to use it.


Well Intel is using AMD 64bit Code in there future CPU's for 64bit
compatibility. IMHO AMD is holding a Royal Flush with 64bit going there
way due to demands from Microsoft that one 64bit scheme is enough in the
PC world of Windows.

I just read that Intel says their not going to use any of the same
technology as AMD, instead opting to create their own and it will not be
compatible with AMD's. Therefore, all the software developers, like
Microsoft have announced delays in their release dates of 64 bit software
because they have to wait on Intel so the software will be able to work with
both CPU's extentions. Sounds like Intel is just screwing things up.
