i5-6600 hyper-threading?

[Wishiwasdead]

so does the i5-6600 really have hyper threading? or is this just a typo on neweggs site... because i was under the impression that no i5 had hyper threading...

ok, yeah thats what i thought... thanks though!

 

i just wasnt sure if it was really a 2 core / sold as a 4 core with the hyper threading...

 

like what AMD as try'd to pull in the past... *shots fired*

6600 doesnt have hyperthreading enabled, but some i5 have. Just check intel's list: http://ark.intel.com/search/advanced/?s=t&FamilyText=5th%20Generation%20Intel%C2%AE%20Core%E2%84%A2%20i5%20Processors&HyperThreading=true
