I bought an Intel Core i7 930 and an X58 motherboard. The Ci7 has hyper-threading. I know that PC games do not in ANY way benefit from hyper-threading. My question is, what applications actually do benefit from this technology? What is it best and primarily used for?
I heard it makes your CPU run about 10 *C hotter when HT is enabled. Is HT enabled automatically by default, or do you have to enable/disable it manually in the BIOS?
